The AVL is subject to change. Should you have any strategic questions or product requests regarding the AVL, please contact your LightReach contact.
Item | Status | Last Update |
AVL Addition Requests: | Closed: Request queue full for 2024 | July 2024 |
Minimum Wattage | 360 | April 2024 |
Cellular Devices | 5 Year data plan minimum | August 2023 |
Key Disclaimers:
Right to Exclude: LightReach reserves the right to exclude individual products from approved manufacturers based on quality considerations.
Inverter Extended Warranty: Installer must purchase the extended 25 year warranty, if applicable (e.g. SolarEdge). Installers must be a certified/registered with the manufacturer if the warranty requires it to maintain the 25 year warranty
PV Module Warranty: All modules must have a 25 year product & production 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)
Manufacturer Specifications: All components used on site must follow manufacturer specifications, including (but not limited to) module compatibility with microinverters/optimizers used, string sizing, overcurrent limits, etc.
Application: Applies to single phase equipment only. Three phase applications are not currently approved. We are reviewing eligibility for three phase applications in the future.
Tesla Guidelines: Powerwall+ and Powerwall 3, and Tesla String Inverters follow strict installation guidelines and milestone submissions. Follow manufacturers installation instructions carefully to avoid rejections and service visits.
Current AVL: Installation of equipment not on the Approved Vendor List or without prior approval for your Relationship Manager with result in M1/M2 funding hold until the project is rectified with approved equipment.
