AJ Long Electric installs residential solar. The array, the interconnection, and the electrical system behind it are one project: service capacity, busbar rating, grounding, inverter or backfeed connection, and how the system will share a panel with an EV charger or a home battery. We confirm the roof and electrical conditions, write the scope, pull the electrical permit path, and coordinate utility interconnection for the address. Panel upgrades, Level 2 charging, and wall-pack batteries are quoted in the same visit when they belong in the design. Roofing or structural work outside our electrical and array scope is identified in the proposal instead of buried in a later change order.

The panel, EV circuit, battery, and array are planned together so the can is not full the day the solar shows up.

Capacity First

A load calculation decides whether the existing service can accept generation plus the house load.

Utility Path

Honest About Credits

The federal 25D 30% residential credit ended for new expenditures after December 31, 2025. We do not sell a credit we cannot deliver.
