BACKGROUND. The ground-mount solar system in SACC Parking Lot A was found to have a critical failure condition during preventive maintenance inspections and service response activities. Currently, two 500 kW Satcon/Solaron inverters are offline, which means that about 1 MW of solar generation capacity is lost. Major internal defects and component breakdowns that cannot be fixed by ordinary maintenance were confirmed by diagnostic testing. In order to recover operational capacity and lessen the ongoing loss of solar production, corrective action is necessary due to the consequent loss of generation, which has a substantial impact on system production. SCOPE. The contractor must provide the following tasks: Parking Lot A Large Ground Mount System Perform diagnostic inspection and isolation of failed inverter systems Salvage usable internal components from inverter TB to support restoration of inverter TD Rebuild and repair inverter TD including internal electrical components, cooling fan motor assemblies, power supply components, and connector hardware as required Decommission inverter TB due to major internal failure and non-repairable condition Install replacement inverter capacity using SMA Sunny Tripower CORE1 (OR SIMILAR) string inverters to restore approximately 500 kW generation capacity Perform electrical integration, system testing, and commissioning Restore monitoring and validate operational performance Document repairs, testing results, and commissioning The contractor shall provide own ladders/ lift to access solar carport system to inspect the damage structurally and electrically Inverter Replacement To replace the output capacity of the 500-kW central inverter, the proposed system would require approximately: 16 × SMA Sunny Tripower CORE1 33-US Inverters Calculation: 500 kW required capacity 33 kW per inverter 500 ÷ 33 16 units The new solar inverters shall be California State Certified and on the current list of inverters.
