How do they match: Solar Photovoltaic Installers

Assemble, install, or maintain solar photovoltaic (PV) systems on roofs or other structures in compliance with site assessment and schematics. May include measuring, cutting, assembling, and bolting structural framing and solar modules. May perform minor electrical work such as current checks.

Install active solar systems, including solar collectors, concentrators, pumps, or fans.
Install module array interconnect wiring, implementing measures to disable arrays during installation.
Install photovoltaic (PV) systems in accordance with codes and standards, using drawings, schematics, and instructions.
Install required labels on solar system components and hardware.
Check electrical installation for proper wiring, polarity, grounding, or integrity of terminations.
Determine materials, equipment, and installation sequences necessary to maximize installation efficiency.
Identify installation locations with proper orientation, area, solar access, or structural integrity for photovoltaic (PV) arrays.
Identify and resolve any deficiencies in photovoltaic (PV) system installation or materials.
Identify electrical, environmental, and safety hazards associated with photovoltaic (PV) installations.
Identify methods for laying out, orienting, and mounting modules or arrays to ensure efficient installation, electrical configuration, or system maintenance.
Select mechanical designs, installation equipment, or installation plans that conform to environmental, architectural, structural, site, and code requirements.
