Our AVL is currently broken down into 3 components:
Manufacturer
Series
Model
Not necessarily all models and series are approved for each manufacturer. The AVL is subject to change. Should you have any strategic questions or product requests regarding the AVL, please contact your LightReach contact.
Key Disclaimers
Right to Exclude: LightReach reserves the right to exclude individual products from approved manufacturers based on quality considerations.
Extended Warranty: The Installer must purchase the extended 25-year warranty, if applicable (e.g. SolarEdge, Tigo). Installers must be certified/registered with the manufacturer if the warranty requires it to maintain the 25-year warranty
Racking: Systems & attachments must be certified for solar racking installation.
Cellular: Systems should include cellular devices with 5-year data plans. If cellular service is confirmed unavailable, LightReach will review alternative communication methods on a case-by-case basis.
Consumption: Systems require whole-home consumption monitoring.
Revenue Grade Metering: Inverters require revenue grade metering. Additional equipment may be required for production or consumption monitoring and reporting.
Bundled Units: LightReach currently does not approve module-level power electronics added to PV modules at the manufacturer facility. (e.g. Optimizers and Microinverters attached to the module directly and shipped as a single unit)
Size/Use: Solar modules should be recommended for residential rooftop or ground mount installations. (Commercial and Industrial sized modules are not generally approved to avoid issues with serviceability in the future)
Minimum Wattage: Solar modules should be a minimum of 360 watts DC unless prior approval is granted.
Installation of equipment not on the Approved Vendor List or without prior approval for your Succuss Manager with result in M1/M2 funding hold until the project is rectified with approved equipment.
