For commercial and industrial rooftops. Engineers draw the roof once, and the plugin lays out modules, strings, trays, cables and earthing, then produces the good-for-construction (GFC) drawings and quantities.
Built for a commercial and industrial solar developer in India. We don't name project clients here, and we're happy to share references.
Engineers draw the roof once. The plugin then lays out the whole rooftop plant and produces the drawings and quantities for construction.
Client drawings stay private, so every picture here is our own drawing with sample data. Each tool reads what the one before it drew, so a change on the roof flows through to the quantities.
Fills a roof area with PV modules from a shared library, for the roof type you pick, around obstructions and walkways.
DC cables routed along guidelines to each inverter, AC cables on to the distribution boards and the point of connection, with trays and conduits drawn, sized and labelled.
Earths every roof in the drawing in one go, by the rules of its roof type: strips and earth pits on RCC roofs, clips and jumpers on metal roofs.
Lays out the water network of each PV area: a water point and pump, a header, branches and taps, so every module is within reach of the hose.
Each tool keeps its own summary, and the project summary brings them together: capacity, module counts and coverage for every PV area, ready for the BOM workbook in Excel.
Builds a titled A0 sheet set from the finished layout, picked from a catalogue of drawings, with each layout framed in its viewport and ready to plot.
Utility-scale plants from the satellite map to the BOQ, including our own product, PVAstra.

Yes. This one was built for one solar developer, so yours would be built around your standards, roof types, title blocks and BOM format. We start from your own drawings.
Metal roofs, RCC roofs and carports. Each PV area follows the rules of its roof type for placement, earthing and module cleaning.
This suite runs on AutoCAD 2021 to 2027. A new tool would target the versions your team uses.
Yes. You declare the strings for each inverter and MPPT, and the single-line diagram is built from the drawn strings in one click, with one panel for each distribution board.
A titled A0 sheet set, picked from a catalogue of 23 drawings: power and earthing single-line drawings, setting-out plan, DC string layout, cable routing, earthing and arrester layouts, module cleaning, and walkway and lifeline arrangements.
Each tool keeps its own summary, and the project summary brings capacity, module counts and coverage together. Tray, earthing, cleaning and lifeline BOQs export to the drawing or Excel, and the BOM workbook collects the materials by category.
Run the tool again. Module cleaning works one PV area at a time, so the others stay as they are, and earthing covers the whole drawing in one go.
Through an installer with email sign-in, and updates arrive automatically.
Yes. We keep client drawings and project details private, and we're happy to sign an NDA before you share drawings.
