Site Assessment
Quick definition
A structured review of property conditions, electrical constraints, and project requirements before final scope approval.
Technical Explanation
Site assessments validate assumptions made during early quoting. They can include panel review, equipment placement constraints, route feasibility, and safety considerations.
Assessment depth varies by project type, but should always surface key dependencies before contract execution.
Practical Implications
A strong site assessment reduces change orders and helps installers provide more reliable timelines.
Examples
- • Reviewing panel and conduit path feasibility for EV charging.
- • Checking roof and electrical readiness before solar installation.
