PV Installation Audit Checklist

by Ewen Maclean, from the Community

This PV installation audit checklist helps inspectors and contractors verify the quality and safety of residential or commercial solar PV systems. It covers dynamic risk assessment, roof mounting and hardware, DC cabling and connectors, internal cable routing, inverter selection and placement, AC protection, meters, and labeling per MCS requirements. It also reviews electrical test sheets, commissioning, and housekeeping to ensure systems are compliant, reliable, and ready for operation.

Solar Quality Inspection Form
This solar quality inspection form helps teams verify the workmanship and safety of PV installations. It covers customer handover details, panel alignment and array boundaries, protection and routing of DC cabling, fasteners and mounting hardware, and checks for broken tiles. Electrical sections confirm neat cable management, correct inverter installation, sealed penetrations, presence of a PV schematic, clear labeling of isolators, and identification in the consumer unit. Use it to document findings, capture signatures, and ensure a safe, compliant installation across residential or commercial solar projects.

Solar PV Quality Inspection Form
This Solar PV Quality Inspection Form helps teams verify residential or commercial solar installations against design and safety requirements. Assess array mounting and brackets, roof condition and clearances, shading risks, bird protection, and secure DC cabling. Check consumer unit protection, labeling, separation of AC and DC cables, surge protection, and correct operation of AC/DC isolators. Confirm inverter and battery mounting, ventilation, earthing, and access in loft spaces, plus fire detection where required. Includes customer satisfaction checks, notes, media capture, and sign offs for QA and corrective actions.

PV Post-Installation Inspection Checklist
Use this checklist to complete a post-installation inspection for residential or commercial solar PV systems. Verify compliance with AS/NZS 5033, AS/NZS 3000, and AS/NZS 4777; check AC and DC cabling, isolators, inverter installation, and PV array mounting. Capture job details, worker licenses, customer sign-offs, and any corrective actions. Includes prompts for crimping tool standards, approved isolators and cables, and WA HW sticker requirements. Ideal for installers, supervisors, and QA inspectors to document commissioning and ensure safe, compliant solar installations.
