Solar Photovoltaic PV Construction Documents design software. Size conductors, conduit, and grounding systems for AC and DC power production. We offer extreme flexibility, the grid-tie inverters can be connected in any manner.

Go to pvrocket.com and request a free demonstration.

Add multiple panels and dictate which inverters connect. Define Underground, Exterior, Interior, and Rooftop uniquely for each output circuit. It will measure all distances automatically and calculate all de-rated capacities and currents. Voltage drop calculations are performed automatically and you can adjust conductor sizes uniquely per circuit. No longer measure the worst case and generalize the cost across the entire design.

Automatically measures distances between modules, inverters, and balance of system equipment. This removes the transfer back-and-forth between Autodesk® AutoCAD® and spreadsheets. By keeping everything inside AutoCAD, it reduces transfer errors and copies errors. Common errors enter by starting from a similar project and trying to track differences manually. PV Rocket starts every project from scratch quickly and easily.

Measuring the “worst case” and designing all circuits to match can be done inside PV Rocket just as the standard manual design practice.  That can aid installation but also drives up cost. It is an unnecessary practice with PV Rocket. PV Rocket can easily and instantly track all feeders and conductors individually to comply with customer requirements while minimizing cost.

PV Rocket is flexible. You can add any number of AC Combiner panels to bring together any number of string inverters, in any order. Temperature derating is calculated based on common sense questions of where and how the feeders are routed, Interior, Exterior, Underground, and Roof. You can add generation power meters, additional disconnects, transformers, etc and have the software track the connections and properly add them all to the Feeder Schedule and Equipment Schedule.

Circuit by circuit measurements and calculations for both AC and DC set PV Rocket apart. It calculates things that many designers either gloss over or do not consider at all. It might be possible to perform a manual design as fast as PV Rocket but never with all the calculations performed and the precision of our software. PV Rocket will make every member of your team productive, accurate, and error free.

PV Rocket has been under development for five years with a dozen beta users. Most of the features it currently has come from its daily use. We can handle a wide variety of inputs, microinverters, and multiple points of interconnection.

    My office gave this a run with the new hires who hadn't done any solar yet, and they are able to produce construction document sets (residential and large scale commercial) at the same rate. It's fantastic. The software is a step by step process that doesn't lead you astray, and shows you calculations as you proceed. The stringing tool could be the best part since it counts the modules as you drag your mouse over them.

    PV Rocket meets all of my photovoltaic solar design needs. It has been made to speed up the drafting and design process for solar designers. I no longer need to spend hours calculating. Calculations will be ready in a few clicks. With a user-friendly drafting and stringing tool, stringing is much easier and faster than manual design. Hours of instructional videos aided my learning of this software.
