Course Overview
A step-by-step guide
Hello and welcome.
This is a practical course on how to install a Solar PV System professionally. This is not a deep theoretical session. But the theory is sufficient to master basic Electrical principles, do calculations for design purposes. To survive in the Solar Technology space, it is importance to understand and know terminologies used and language spoken.
Have the minimum equipment and instruments to do an Electrical installation. Do a proper preparation for installation, gather information from customer requirements. Then be ready to do an installation from day 1. Be on the lookout for common mistakes which will cost you dearly in the final product. Perform the installation Electrically safe and adhere to safety rules when executing the work. This will avoid Electrical shocks, injury on duty and damage to customers property.
In the process of installation, be able to perform basic tests like continuity tests, check grid voltage, how to isolate circuits and use multimeter safely. Then also perform functional testing of PV system. After installation, ensure that customers house is restored and all appliances, plugs and switches are working correctly. Further issue an Electrical compliance certificate as per Electrical regulations and legislation (in South Africa).
Also have the ability to best advice the customers of the suitable system requirements as an installer. As a potential buyer have enough knowledge to make an informed decision to by a Solar PV System.

I was disappointed with this course due to several issues. The sound quality was poor, with frequent cutouts and muffled audio, causing important information to be lost. The sentence construction and wording were confusing, especially in the section on connectors where double words and incorrect terms were used (e.g., the explanation of the female connector). Visual illustrations were poorly presented, and there were numerous spelling errors. The quizzes were problematic too—Quiz 1 had an incorrect answer marked as correct in the first question, and Quiz 3, Question 7 had three identical answers and one different, making it unclear. Overall, the course lacked clarity and professionalism, which made it feel not worth the money.
