Off-grid Solar & ESS Design Expert

Job ID: 40538678

Budget: $30 – $250 CAD

Looking for a professional Electrical Designer to create a formal, build-ready documentation package for a 5kW off-grid solar and energy storage system (ESS).

The goal is to provide a comprehensive "Instructional Design Package" that local contractors in Togo can follow to ensure industrial-grade installation and safety.

Project Scope:

Design & Documentation: Translate my specified Victron Energy architecture (MultiPlus-II 48V/5000VA ESS) into professional schematics and wiring diagrams.

Technical Compliance: All designs must follow the grounding, circuit protection, and cable sizing standards found in Victron Energy: Wiring Unlimited.

Bill of Materials (BOM): Provide an itemized, professional BOM including component specifications and requirements for local procurement (panels, racking, conduit).

Single-Line Diagram: Create a clear, industrial single-line diagram showing the power flow from the solar array, through the MPPT and Lynx Distributor, to the inverter/AC distribution.

Required Deliverables:

Full Schematic Set: Professional-grade drawings (PDF and source files: AutoCAD/EPLAN) detailing power distribution, DC busbar layout, and grounding.

Itemized BOM: Clear list of required parts, hardware, and specific component model numbers.

Technical Installation Guide: A summary document for the field team covering torque specifications, wire sizing calculations, and safety requirements.

Required Skills:

Proven experience in industrial electrical design or solar PV engineering.

Deep familiarity with Victron Energy ESS topology and communication standards (VE.Can/BMS-Can).

Ability to produce clear, unambiguous "build-ready" documentation.

Fluency in English and electrical technical terminology.

Application Requirements:
When applying, please provide:

At least two examples of previous electrical schematic/design projects you have completed.

Confirmation of your familiarity with the Victron Wiring Unlimited documentation standards.

The CAD software you intend to use for this project.
