When you engage Smart Commercial Solar, you’re engaging Australia’s best EPC to design and construct your system. Our processes have been honed over thousands of installs across every DNSP.
We make the process simple.
1. Client engagement and approvals
The engineering department closely engage the client through the detailed design process. We collaborate with our clients to achieve the best outcome and seek approvals on all final designs.
2. Site Assessments
An initial site assessment is an essential step to understanding the environmental and electrical site conditions. Smart will send a representative to inspect the roof, switchboards and necessary details required for connection and council approvals and scope out areas which may be used during construction.
Drawings provide crucial information to installers, clients, and other contractors. Rigorous drawing processes allow SCS to provide industry-leading clarity through our drawn documentation.
Detailed system drawings:
- SLD
- String design
- Metering and monitoring schematics
- Grid protection design
Once information is extracted from a site assessment, Smart develops detailed system drawings required for connection approval with the relevant DNSP and the construction of the PV system. These drawings are developed by CEC accredited engineers, in accordance with the latest CEC guidelines and relevant Australian Standards. The drawings are designed to be technical, yet clearly readable for solar installers and other sub-contractors.
3. Structural Assessment
Years of experience in designing customised battery solutions has lead to our ability to design high-performance, rapid deployment containerised BESS solutions. Shipping containers make great enclosures for any Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). These can be fitted out off site before arriving on site for a much quicker installation than usual. This is the neatest and lowest maintenance way to install a BESS.
4. Detailed Design
Once information is extracted from a site assessment, Smart develops detailed system drawings required for connection approval with the relevant DNSP and the construction of the PV system. These drawings are developed by CEC accredited engineers, in accordance with the latest CEC guidelines and relevant Australian Standards. The drawings are designed to be technical, yet clearly readable for solar installers and other sub-contractors.
Smart engineers leverage years of experience on a multitude of projects to ensure the system design is as efficient as possible.
Some examples of the due diligence our engineering team will perform are; fault rating and prospective short circuit current calculations, voltage rise and impedance calculations, discrimination/grading of switchgear, thermal de-rating of equipment, assessments of corrosivity and wind loading.
Bespoke engineering
SCS has developed extensive experience in delivering highly engineered solutions to niche problems. By combining the broad experience base of our engineers, with the creativity of our team, and the diligent execution by our contractors, we are able to implement world first solutions.
