This class is for the DIY installer. It is a discussion of the steps to install your own array, in particular a ground mount unit, using Enphase Microinverters. For the municipality where I live, the permitting process is easy - just an electrical inspection.
We will take data to determine the IV curve for a panel, and look at the solarpathfinder.com to explore the impact of tree shading.
See www.Watt-tracker.com for plans for a fixed mount.
For free 1 hour presentations, see <http://solpowerpeople.com/solarmooc-guest-lecturer-directory/> Subject matter from off-grid to grid connected systems, including the NEC code and system grounding... the list goes on and on.
Previous students welcome free.

When you register classes, an account will be created at txrxlabs.org using your email address. You will be emailed login credentials. Most people who take classes with us just ignore this email, and that is fine.
Come to the lab in person and ask to see Roland or any officer. They can accept payment and give you a receipt. Some classes do have an enrollment cap, so it is better to do this sooner than later.
Most classes are for beginners, and clicking on the class title will take you to the class detail page. The right column shows prerequisites and requirements. If you mouse over them you will see what is required for that class. Some classes require a brief safety class which is taught 20 minutes before the class. Additionally, there may be fee notes which explain how much of the cost goes towards materials.
