The Solar PV Field Testing Technician will be responsible for supporting field-based technical services throughout
the lifecycle of solar PV projects, with a primary focus on on-site testing, verification, and data collection. The role
includes performing regular field inspections to assess installation quality, carry out visual and electrical checks, and
ensure that measurements and test results are accurate and consistent with site conditions. The technician will also
conduct basic reviews of collected data and reports to confirm alignment with field observations.
The candidate will coordinate with contractors and client representatives on site, follow internal procedures, and
report any deviations, safety concerns, or quality issues identified during inspections. Experience with PV
installations is valued, although extensive experience in electrical installations or maintenance is also suitable. Good
communication skills, attention to detail, and the ability to work independently in a field environment are essential.
Perform on‑site inspections of solar PV installations to verify construction quality and compliance with
established procedures.
- Carry out visual and electrical checks following standardized testing protocols.
- Review and validate field measurement data, test procedures, and basic test reports to ensure consistency
- with site conditions.
- Identify, document, and follow up on deviations, defects, or safety concerns until they are resolved.
- Participate in site coordination meetings to communicate findings and ensure all required documentation
- is provided by stakeholders.
- Support the collection and preliminary review of PR measurements, IV curve data, and other performance indicators.
- Assist with field testing activities such as electroluminescence (EL) imaging, thermographic inspections, curve tracing, insulation resistance testing, and general visual inspections.
- Operate, maintain, and properly handle testing equipment including IV tracers, EL cameras, insulation
- resistance meters, infrared cameras, clamp meters, and multimeters.
- Coordinate with client representatives and contractors prior to and during site visits to ensure readines for testing activities.
- Contribute to the preparation of field notes and provide input to final inspection reports to confirm that
- results match field observations.
Requirements
· Vocational training or technical certification in electrical installations, renewable energy, or a related field.
· (Extensive experience in electrical installations or maintenance may be considered in place of formal
education.)
- Solid understanding of the components and basic operation of PV systems or electrical installations.
- Strong attention to detail, good documentation habits, and the ability to follow standardized procedures.
- Good communication skills (written and verbal) and proficiency with Microsoft Office and basic computer
- applications.
- Ability to work effectively as part of a field‑based team.
- Previous experience performing electrical tests, measurements, or inspections is preferred.
- Experience with PV module or inverter testing is a plus.
- Experience using DSLR cameras is an advantage (for EL imaging and visual documentation).
- Ability to work outdoors in demanding conditions, including high/low temperatures, nighttime operations,
- long periods standing, and climbing ladders or stairs.
- Ability to correctly use personal protective equipment (e.g., safety shoes, gloves, safety glasses, reflective
- vest, hearing protection).
- Basic understanding of common failure modes in PV systems or electrical installations is preferred.
