Calabasas Solar Project

Project Overview

US POWER completed a premium Qcells solar system installation on a pitched composition shingle roof in Calabasas, CA. The project was engineered for high energy efficiency, seamless electrical integration, and lasting aesthetic appeal — reflecting US POWER’s commitment to quality solar craftsmanship across Southern California.

System Specifications & Key Components

• Solar Panels: 24 Qcells Q.PEAK DUO BLK 410 panels installed on the home’s pitched composition shingle roof. These panels deliver high efficiency, enhanced durability, and a modern, all-black design for sleek curb appeal.
• Inverters: Enphase IQ8+ microinverters (model IQ8PLUS-72-2-US) provide smart, module-level power optimization with real-time grid support and monitoring capabilities.
• Mounting System: Precision-engineered shingle roof-mount system installed using standard watertight penetrations to preserve roof integrity and ensure long-term stability..
• Electrical Integration: A dedicated circuit was added to the home’s existing electrical panel to accommodate the new solar breaker, ensuring full compliance with local code and safe, efficient power delivery.
• System Size: Approximately 9.84 kW DC (24 panels × 410 W each), optimized for maximum annual energy production.
• Permitting & Inspection: All documentation, electrical drawings, and installation practices were reviewed and approved per LADBS and utility interconnection standards.

Project Highlights

• Roof-Friendly Installation: Maintained the existing roof structure with no penetrations beyond standard solar mounting hardware, ensuring watertight protection and structural integrity.
• Seamless Electrical Integration: Added a dedicated solar circuit to the home’s electrical panel for optimal compatibility and compliance with city codes.
• Long-Term Value: Engineered for consistent performance, this installation enhances property value while reducing long-term electricity costs.
