Solar PV Installation Site Survey Checklist
by Burt Groenewald, from the Community
This Solar PV installation site survey checklist helps assess residential or commercial sites before installation. Capture customer and property details, roof type and construction, orientation, pitch, dimensions, and timber condition. Document shading risks with photos and sketches, and note AC and solar cabling lengths. Select inverter location and mounting details, record main AC connection point, phase type, and breaker changes, and log dedicated plug points. Include photos of obstructions, AC connection points, and proposed inverter location. Finish with system size discussion, battery bank considerations, and surveyor and customer sign-off to ensure safe, compliant, and efficient installations.
