Description

This course is a practical, step-by-step guide to residential and commercial solar PV system design using SketchUp. It focuses on how solar systems are actually modeled, drafted, and presented for real projects—not theory and not sales talk.

You'll learn how to

create accurate site plans and 3D solar layouts in SketchUp, then convert those models into clear, professional solar drawings. The course covers the full workflow, including stringing schematics, single line diagrams (SLDs), inverter details, and disconnection point plans.
The emphasis is on clarity, accuracy, and industry-style presentation. You'll understand not just how to draw these plans, but why each drawing exists, what information it must show, and how to keep it readable for installers, engineers, and utilities.
By the end of the course, you'll be able to
• Model residential and commercial solar PV systems in SketchUp
• Produce clean site plans and PV array layouts
• Create stringing schematics based on proper inverter and MPPT logic
• Draft single line diagrams (SLDs) that clearly show system power flow
• Prepare inverter detail drawings and disconnection point plans
• Present everything as professional, submission-ready drawings
This course is designed for solar designers, drafters, engineers, electricians, and freelancers who want job-ready solar design skills using SketchUp.
If your goal is to create clear, professional solar drawings for residential or commercial projects, this course gives you the exact workflow to do it.

Who this course is for

Solar designers and Installers wanting to expand their business to commercial scale
PV Engineers wanting to upskill to get a higher paying job
