Operations and Maintenance Best Practices
February 24th, 9am-12pm | Instructor: Brian Mehalic | NABCEP CE hours: 4
PV and storage system installed capacity continues to grow each year, emphasizing the need for proper operations and maintenance (O&M) to realize operational goals. This rapid growth has created a workforce development challenge as there is a shortage of qualified technicians that can safely and effectively perform the work, and the industry has suffered from standardized methods and training.
This course covers how workforce development initiatives, codes and standards, and improved training programs can help the sector to scale up. It will also explore best practices for performing a range of O&M tasks, including inspections and preventive maintenance, testing, and troubleshooting, along with advanced analytical tools, meters, and techniques such as infrared cameras, insulation resistance testers, I-V curve tracers, and other key tools for safely and efficiently performing O&M work.
This course covers all sizes of grid-direct PV systems including residential, commercial, and large-scale, but does not cover battery maintenance or medium voltage-specific O&M tasks.
