Inspection & Maintenance – Why?

Inspection and maintenance – why – the picture gives you the first reason- things break – not always from a bullet but it can happen as well. We are the boots on the ground that is why we call it I&M as we are not necessarily doing the O -Operation!

Inspection & Testing

We can deliver what is necessary for the project – on this project we did a semi-annual check which included general maintenance for the electrical components, IV curve tracing, IR pictures, mechanical checks and site condition check.

Trackers

Because of their nature trackers have to be checked more often on the mechanical site than fixed tilt installations. As a certified installer for many trackers we understand the specific maintenance need of this product group.

Reports & Follow up

A very important part of the I&M activity – not only to record results and produce the documentation – but also to point out issues which might have to be fixed during the next scheduled maintenance or even earlier when necessary!
