Abstract
A method and apparatus for generating an array layout template. In one embodiment the method comprises scanning, using an installation application on a mobile device comprising at least one processor, a tag coupled to a splice box that is coupled to a trunk cable in a solar installation; and generating, via the installation application and based on information obtained by scanning the tag, a template that shows a physical layout of the splice box and a plurality of solar array components that are coupled to the trunk cable.
Claims20
An apparatus for generating an array layout template, comprising:
- a mobile device comprising an installation application for (i) scanning a tag coupled to a splice box that is coupled to a trunk cable in a solar installation, and (ii) generating, based on information obtained by scanning the tag, a template that shows a physical layout of the splice box and a plurality of solar array components that are coupled to the trunk cable.
A method for generating an array layout template, comprising:
- scanning, using an installation application on a mobile device comprising at least one processor, a tag coupled to a splice box that is coupled to a trunk cable in a solar installation;
- and
- generating, via the installation application and based on information obtained by scanning the tag, a template that shows a physical layout of the splice box and a plurality of solar array components that are coupled to the trunk cable.
A computer readable medium for storing a program that, when executed by a processor, causes the processor to perform a method for generating an array layout template, the method comprising:
- obtaining information via scanning a tag coupled to a splice box that is coupled to a trunk cable in a solar installation;
- and
- generating, based on the information, a template that shows a physical layout of the splice box and a plurality of solar array components that are coupled to the trunk cable.
