3.
Design and Planning- Our technicians design a customized installation plan that maximizes solar exposure while maintaining the yacht’s aesthetic.
- We plan wiring routes and the positioning of charge controllers, inverters, and batteries.
4.
Preparation of Installation Area- The selected area for solar panel placement is cleaned and prepped.
- We take care to ensure the surface is stable and allows for secure attachment.
5.
Mounting Solar Panels- Panels are mounted using corrosion-resistant brackets and fasteners designed for the marine environment.
- Proper angles and spacing are set for optimal sunlight capture and water drainage.
6.
Wiring and Electrical Integration- Marine-grade wiring is used to ensure durability against saltwater, UV exposure, and other harsh conditions.
- Wires are connected from the panels to a charge controller, which manages the flow of electricity and protects the batteries from overcharging.
- The charge controller is then linked to the battery bank, with additional integration to the yacht’s main electrical system if needed.
7.
Inverter Installation (If Applicable)- If you need to convert DC power to AC, our technicians install a marine inverter to power household appliances onboard.
- This step involves careful calibration and connection to ensure smooth operation.
8.
Testing the System- The entire solar panel system undergoes thorough testing. We verify electrical connections, panel output, and charge controller functionality.
- Performance under load conditions is tested to ensure the system meets power requirements.
9.
User Training and Final Check- We provide a briefing on how to monitor the solar panel system, check output, and perform basic maintenance.
- A final inspection is done to confirm all components are secure and working as expected.
Step-by-Step Guide to Yacht Solar Panel Maintenance1.
Visual Inspection- Our technicians perform regular visual inspections for dirt, debris, or damage to the panels and mounts.
- We check for signs of wear on cables, connectors, and mounts.
2.
Panel Cleaning- Panels are cleaned using marine-friendly solutions to remove salt buildup, bird droppings, or grime that may block sunlight.
- Regular cleaning helps maintain optimal energy efficiency.
3.
Electrical System Check- We inspect wiring for signs of corrosion or damage due to exposure.
- Voltage and current readings are taken to ensure panels are producing the expected power output.
4.
Charge Controller and Battery Inspection- We test the charge controller for proper functionality and adjust settings if necessary.
- Batteries are checked for voltage stability and connections are tightened and treated to prevent corrosion.
5.
Performance Monitoring- Our team reviews past performance data to identify any drops in efficiency and troubleshoot issues before they escalate.
