Cable Tray enhancements

Automatic parallel tray generation

When PVcase Roof Mount identifies that the cable count in a specific area exceeds the maximum allowed for the set cable tray size in Custom Cable Trays, it will automatically add extra parallel trays to accommodate all the cables.

We will fill the trays sequentially, taking the largest cable tray and adding a smaller tray to accommodate the remaining cables.

Example:

If there are 110 cables in an area, with the Custom Cable Tray settings below, PVcase Roof Mount will create:

  • one tray of 0.2m (80 cables), and

  • one tray of 0.1m (40 cables)

Export and Import Cable Tray Size Settings

Users can now easily reuse the Custom Cable Tray Sizes settings for various drawings.

To export settings, simply go to "Export Settings" in the ribbon menu. This will save the current active drawing's cable tray settings.

To import settings, use "Import Settings" in the ribbon menu when you open a drawing on which you'd like to reuse the settings. The settings will then automatically be filled in for you.

String Labeling updated to include MPPT information

Users using advanced cabling with MPPT assignment can now turn on labels for MPPT # and MPPT Input #.

To turn on these fields, go to "Labeling":

  1. Hover over each field to see what it represents;

  2. Click on the lightbulb to turn on or off.

Labeling now has four fields available for users to customize:

  • Inverter #

  • MPPT #

  • MPPT Input #

  • String #

Click to highlight strings & inverters on the drawing

To locate inverters and strings on drawings easily, users can click on the electrical components list in the Electrical modal, and PVcase Roof Mount will select the corresponding component in the drawing.

Strings per Inverter counter

A counter is now visible when assigning strings to inverters to inform users how many strings are selected and how many are possible based on the configuration. This provides visibility throughout the selection process and reduces manual counting.
