Low or no power output
Symptoms:
Your system is producing little or no electricity.
Steps to fix:
Check for shade or dirt on the solar panels. If you see a lot of build up, clean them with water and a soft cloth if needed OR call us at <phone no> to schedule professional cleaning.
Inspect the inverter display. If the inverter isn’t showing any readings, it may not be powered.
Ensure your system is connected to the grid and your main power switch is on.
