The common bond between solar installers and licensed electricians

-There’s more to installing solar than the panels. Even though the energy to power home or business now comes from the sun instead of the electrical company, it’s still electrical energy. Putting up the solar panels is only one part of the process. The panels need to be connected to the system that converts the DC energy collected from the sun into the AC energy that can be used in daily life. The solar installer team from San Luis Obispo’s Electricraft, Inc., sheds some light on why it’s important to have electricity savvy installers and solar savvy electricians on the same team.

Electricraft has been serving the electrical needs of the Central Coast since 1984 and has been on the forefront of electrical advancements, including solar energy, EV charging, and more technological advancements that are keeping the home lights on and business and industry running. From Electricraft’s view, highly trained, certified, and licensed electricians and solar installers are key.

  • Licensed electricians perform the energy-use assessments that make sure a new or upgraded solar system will meet the necessary electrical power demands and that the building’s electrical system is in the best shape possible.
  • The solar installers work with the electricians to make sure the panels are inspected, installed correctly and properly connected so energy can be converted from DC to AC. The solar installers play a key role in testing the new or upgraded solar system and making any final adjustments that may be needed.

The complete picture

From designing your solar system, to selecting the best panels and equipment, through electrical assessments and inspections, necessary upgrades, installation and making sure the new system is working as it should, a well-qualified team delivers seamless performance.

Businesses and homeowners often take advantage of a new solar system to upgrade equipment and appliances. The San Luis Obispo solar installation and licensed electrician team from Electricraft play an important role by making sure all of the components are working seamlessly to support new and updated appliances.

Before the first panel is installed, the system needs to be designed, plans drawn up and approved, and necessary permits ready. Once installation starts, professional relationships with local building departments are critical to be sure all inspections are passed and unforeseen problems are solved as quickly as possible.

Solar systems require as much electrical expertise as any other electrical system. A licensed electrician not only assesses the existing electrical system before the solar installers get to work, any necessary upgrades and repairs can be made and expensive delays prevented.

Safety and regulatory compliance are just as important for solar installation as for any electrical project. A skilled team makes sure that every safety requirement, from installation, maintenance through operation is met and the new owner is fully informed.
