Lifeng Deng Residential Solar & Panel Upgrade

R-C Electric completed a full solar and electrical upgrade for homeowner Lifeng Deng, delivering a clean, efficient installation designed for long-term energy savings and reliability. The project focused on integrating a new rooftop solar array with an upgraded electrical service so the home is ready for today’s needs and tomorrow’s technology.

Scope of Work

• Designed and installed a roof-mounted residential solar system sized to offset a large portion of the home’s usage.
• Upgraded the main electrical panel to safely handle solar, future battery storage, and potential EV charging loads.
• Cleaned up and reorganized existing circuits with clear labeling for easier service and troubleshooting.
• Integrated solar monitoring so Lifeng can track production and performance in real time.
• Coordinated all inspections and utility approvals through to Permission to Operate (PTO).

Project Highlights

• Neat, professional panel layout with clearly labeled breakers and disconnects.
• Solar array placed to balance roof appearance with strong production throughout the year.
• Battery-ready design so a storage system can be added later without major rework.
• Optimized wiring and equipment placement to keep the installation clean and service-friendly.

Safety & Compliance

• All work completed to current NEC standards and local jurisdiction requirements.
• Required solar, disconnect, and rapid-shutdown labels installed for utility and first-responder safety.
• Inspection passed on first visit with no corrections needed.

“R-C Electric made the whole process simple—from design and permits to final inspection. The new panel looks great, the solar system is performing well, and I feel confident about the quality of the work.”
