The project
You join Calverdon Energy Installations Ltd (simulated company)
Calverdon Energy Installations Ltd (simulated company) is a solar and ev charging installer in Manchester. You help its team deliver a project for Ardmoor Logistics Ltd (simulated company), at Ardmoor Park Depot: warehouse roof and staff car park.
Ardmoor Logistics wants solar on its warehouse roof and six EV charge points in the car park, on the supply it already has. You join Calverdon's design team in week one with a half-checked string design. In the first week you size strings for the coldest morning, review a draft, size the AC cable and work out how six chargers share 100 A. Later, the network operator limits export to 15 kW, the client adds two chargers, a string tests low, a wet insulation reading comes in under pressure to sign, and the client asks to skip the protection that guards against a lost PEN conductor.
The people in the story are roles, such as Lead Engineer, not real people.
