What a Professional Solar Commissioning Process Includes

A system is not complete until it is tested, programmed, documented and verified.

Commissioning Technical Guide

Engineering basis

Before energisation, verify approved drawings, equipment ratings, mechanical completion, conductor identification, polarity, continuity, insulation, earthing and protection settings. Manufacturer commissioning sequences and firmware compatibility must be observed.

Design and verification requirements

Functional testing should prove PV start-up, charging, discharging, protected-load limits, grid loss, transfer, generator control where fitted, shutdown, recovery, communications, alarms and remote access. Handover includes settings, test records, drawings, warranties and operating procedures.

MicroSec technical workflow

  1. Confirm the client objective and operating modes.
  2. Measure and document the site conditions and load profile.
  3. Complete the electrical and energy design.
  4. Install to approved drawings and manufacturer requirements.
  5. Test, program, commission and record the final settings.
  6. Monitor performance and maintain the system through its service life.

Important: Final equipment selection, protection settings and compliance documentation require a site-specific assessment.
