Field notes

Circuitcheck combines equipment specifications with weather data from 318 listed locations, rather than treating nominal panel and battery ratings as sufficient. Its stated checks include cold-weather open-circuit voltage, battery-management-system limits, and wire sizing under NEC 690.7 or ABYC E-11, depending on the installation. The homepage also lists 290 components, 40 audited kits, and 12 guides with live calculators.
