This advanced PV Electrical System Design microcredential prepares PV technicians and designers to configure complete electrical systems for solar installations, including inverter selection, circuit sizing, protection systems, and energy storage integration. Students will gain hands-on skills in designing string configurations, applying voltage drop calculations, selecting appropriate conductors and raceways, and integrating battery technologies and module-level electronics. The course also explores backup systems, arc-fault protection, and performance optimization strategies for hybrid and AC-coupled systems.
At ImmerseLearn, we focus on job-ready skills that align with real-world refrigeration and food service demands. This course ensures learners are prepared to install and service both large walk-in units and high-demand ice production equipment used across restaurants, grocery stores, and institutional facilities.
At ImmerseLearn, we empower technicians and designers with the ability to plan, size, and implement electrical and storage systems that meet performance, safety, and compliance standards. This microcredential is ideal for professionals moving into roles that require in-depth electrical knowledge and system configuration skills.
Learn to match inverter specifications with array characteristics, calculate optimal string lengths, and configure systems to maximize production.
Master AC and DC circuit design principles, including ampacity checks, conductor de-rating, and conduit fill calculations.
Use power optimizers and microinverters in complex installations to improve performance monitoring and shade tolerance.
Design PV systems with proper grounding, overcurrent protection, arc-fault detection, and rapid shutdown compliance.
Select batteries based on cycle life, voltage, capacity, and depth-of-discharge characteristics; size systems for backup or load shifting.
Understand the interaction between charge controllers, hybrid inverters, and battery management systems in grid-tied and off-grid environments.
Calculate power requirements for essential loads, determine generator compatibility, and integrate automatic transfer systems.
By completing this microcredential, students will be equipped to design full PV electrical systems with integrated energy storage, enabling them to contribute to complex residential, commercial, or hybrid solar projects with confidence and precision.
