Inspection finds Chamberlain Elementary solar system safe; faulty inverter covered by warranty
A third‑party electrical contractor inspected the rooftop solar arrays at Chamberlain Elementary and found the system safe with one unit identified for replacement under warranty.

Assistant Superintendent Monaghan summarized the October 17 inspection by JRB Electric: rooftop arrays were visually checked for damaged wiring and panels, inverters were tested for DC and AC voltage and operating ranges, and disconnects and panel boards were inspected for water intrusion and proper connections. The report said one head unit was faulty and a replacement will be shipped and installed under warranty; otherwise the system ‘‘is found to be in good working order,’’ Monaghan reported.

Committee members asked whether the inspection was independent of the original installer; the district confirmed JRB Electric was an independent inspector with no relationship to the installer and that future inspections will be scheduled regularly. A motion to receive the inspection memo and place it on file passed unanimously.

District staff said the district will provide the committee with the inspection schedule and check warranty durations for affected components.
