How we execute the projects :

  • Understand Local Regulations:

    Cadascent is familiar with all AHJ guidelines with local building codes, zoning regulations, and permitting requirements related to solar installations. Different areas may have specific rules and guidelines that must be followed.

  • Site Assessment and Planning:

    We do site assessment to determine the best location for the solar array, considering factors like sunlight exposure, shading, structural integrity, equipment location.

  • Select the Right Equipment:

    Then choose appropriate solar panels, inverters, racking systems, and other components that meet the requirements of the project and local codes.

  • Create Detailed System Drawings:

    Develop accurate and comprehensive technical drawings that include the layout of solar panels, wiring diagrams, and structural details. These drawings should be clear and easy to understand.

  • Electrical Design:

    Develop a detailed electrical plan that outlines the configuration of the electrical system, including wire sizes, conduit paths, disconnects, and grounding.

  • Structural Engineering:

    If required, obtain structural engineering reports and calculations to ensure the solar system's mounting and attachment points meet the necessary structural requirements.

  • Fire Safety Plan:

    Design and document a fire safety plan that includes proper setbacks, access routes for emergency vehicles, and fire department notification procedures.

  • Utility Interconnection:

    Develop plans for utility interconnection, including information about the point of interconnection, metering, and the system's connection to the grid.

  • Wind and Snow Load Analysis:

    Perform wind and snow load analysis to ensure the solar array can withstand extreme weather conditions.

  • Review by Professional Engineer (Permit Stamping)

    Have the solar permit design reviewed and stamped by a professional engineer to ensure compliance with engineering standards and local regulations.
