The full range

Every install, sorted.

From a servicing callout to a full commercial array, TradieNotes keeps up with the range of jobs US solar installers actually run.

📋NABCEP certification & interconnection

NABCEP certification is the industry-standard credential many utilities and state incentive programs require, grid-connected systems need a utility interconnection agreement (standards vary by state/utility, generally following IEEE 1547), and all electrical work must comply with the NEC. Note: the federal 30% Residential Clean Energy Credit expired for installations placed in service after Dec 31, 2025 — check current state and utility incentives instead.

🔋Battery storage add-ons

Battery systems are increasingly bundled with new solar installs but priced and specced separately. Note the battery unit as its own line and it's itemised distinctly from the panel install.

🔧Servicing & upgrades

Fault-finding, inverter replacements, and panel additions are smaller jobs than a full install. Note the job type and it's captured as its own invoice, separate from new system work.

Solar Installer FAQ

Questions, answered.

Does it separate panel costs from installation labour?+
Yes. Describe panels, inverter, and battery hardware separately from your installation labour and each is itemised as its own line.
Can it handle battery storage installs alongside solar?+
Yes. Note the battery system as its own line item and it's captured distinctly from the panel and inverter install.
Does it know about solar installer certification and incentive rules?+
TradieNotes doesn't check certification for you, but it's worth noting: NABCEP certification is the industry-standard credential many utilities and state incentive programs require, grid-connected systems need a utility interconnection agreement (standards vary by state/utility, generally following IEEE 1547), and all electrical work must comply with the NEC. The federal 30% Residential Clean Energy Credit expired for installations placed in service after Dec 31, 2025 — check current state and utility incentives instead.
Can it invoice for servicing and fault callouts?+
Yes. Note it as a servicing or fault-finding job and it's itemised separately from a new system install.
Does it handle both residential and commercial solar jobs?+
Yes. Note the job type — residential rooftop, commercial array, off-grid system — and it's captured accurately on your invoice.
What does a solar install typically cost in the US?+
Pricing depends on system size, panel count, and whether battery storage is included — your invoice reflects whatever you actually charged for that job.
Can I invoice for a system upgrade or panel addition?+
Yes. Note it as a system upgrade or panel addition and it's captured as its own invoice, separate from a full new install.
Are the invoices sales-tax ready?+
Yes — every invoice itemises labour and equipment and includes a Sales Tax line you fill in before exporting. Sales tax rules vary by state, so TradieNotes doesn\'t auto-calculate a rate for you.
Do I need an account?+
No account needed. Create one free to save your invoice history, or just snap and pay $2.
