Time and personnel requirements for installing solar energy structures
Pre preparation stage:
The process includes on-site survey, design proposal formulation, and application for permits, among which permit approval may take 1-3 weeks. Some complex projects may need to be extended to 4 weeks
Actual installation phase:
The specific duration of installing solar panels, inverters, and other equipment depends on the structure of the building
Single story residential building: 3-4 hours
Double decker residence: 5-6 hours
If it involves roof renovation or circuit adjustment, it may take an additional 1-2 days
Grid approval and meter replacement:
After installation, it is necessary to wait for approval from the power company and replace the smart meter. This stage usually takes 2-6 weeks, and in some areas, it may be extended to 1-4 weeks due to complex processes.
In extreme cases, the overall process (including approval) may take 30 to 6 months, depending on the efficiency and policies of the local power company.
Personnel requirements:
Survey, design, and installation must be completed by certified engineers or professional teams to ensure compliance with safety regulations
Operations such as grid connection and meter replacement require authorized personnel from the power company to intervene
Division of labor and collaboration process:
Preliminary survey: Technical personnel evaluate the roof's load-bearing capacity, orientation, and other conditions
Scheme design: The engineering team develops an installation plan based on data
Construction and Inspection: The installation team shall complete the equipment fixation and commissioning, and the grid connection can only be carried out after the regulatory agency has accepted it as qualified
Regional differences:
Approval is faster in regions such as California (about 2-6 weeks), while it may take 4-6 months in places like New Jersey
It may take 2 months from application to grid connection
The installation of solar energy takes between one month and six months, and the entire process relies on the cooperation of professional personnel, making it impossible for individuals to operate independently. Suggest consulting us in advance to estimate the specific time required
