Learning Objectives

• 1. Apply advanced O&M safety protocols including LOTO, Job Hazard Analysis, and PPE selection to perform level-appropriate electrical and mechanical work.
• 2. Analyze solar PV system performance using environmental data, temperature coefficients, irradiance measurements, and system loss factors to compare actual production against expectations.
• 3. Conduct preventative, corrective, and warranty-required maintenance activities using industry-standard test equipment, including IV curve tracing, thermography, and insulation resistance testing.
• 4. Perform intermediate troubleshooting and root cause analysis to diagnose and resolve common system faults and execute recommissioning tests upon completion of corrective work.
• 5. Interact with remote monitoring systems, interpret performance and diagnostic data, annotate plan sets, and submit warranty claims.
• 6. Apply market-segment-specific skills across residential, commercial and industrial, utility-scale, and BESS project types, including relevant safety, maintenance, and compliance requirements for each.
