The Brief
The clients wanted to ensure their existing solar PV systems were being properly maintained and performing as they should.
The scope of works included a comprehensive inspection and electrical testing of the installations, together with cleaning of the solar panels to remove accumulated dirt and debris that could affect performance.
As part of the inspection, we also identified areas requiring remedial attention. The clients wanted these issues addressed professionally and efficiently, ensuring the systems were left safe, compliant and operating as effectively as possible.
At both sites, preventing birds from nesting beneath the solar panels was also an important consideration, as nesting material and bird activity can potentially cause damage to cabling, the roof and the solar installation.
Our Solution
Our experienced team carried out a detailed inspection of the existing solar PV systems, checking the panels, associated electrical equipment, cabling, connections and protective devices.
Electrical testing was undertaken to assess the condition and safe operation of the installations, allowing us to identify any faults, deterioration or areas requiring remedial work.
We also carried out professional cleaning of the solar panels, removing accumulated dirt, dust, debris and other contaminants. Keeping panels clean helps ensure that they can continue to operate efficiently and maximise available solar generation.
Where remedial issues were identified, these were addressed by our team to improve the safety, reliability and performance of the systems.
Components We Used
- Solar PV system inspection
- Electrical testing
- Inspection of panels, cabling and connections
- Testing of associated electrical equipment and protection
- Solar panel cleaning
- Identification and completion of remedial works
- Installation of BirdBlocker to solar panel arrays
- General maintenance to improve system safety and reliability
The Results
The maintenance programme provided both the Royal Shakespeare Company and Stratford High School with greater confidence in the condition and operation of their existing solar PV systems.
Through detailed testing and inspection, issues could be identified and addressed before they developed into more significant problems. Cleaning the panels also helped ensure the arrays were able to operate as efficiently as possible.
The installation of BirdBlocker provided additional protection for the solar arrays, helping to prevent future bird nesting and reducing the risk of damage to cables and equipment beneath the panels.
The completed works have helped extend the working life of the installations while supporting safe, reliable and efficient solar generation.
For organisations such as the Royal Shakespeare Company and Stratford High School, regular solar PV maintenance is an important part of protecting their investment and ensuring that their renewable energy systems continue to deliver value for years to come.
