Situation

After a fire incident, clarification was needed regarding technical cause, extent of damage and further actions. The client needed traceable documentation for the insurer and other parties.

Questions

Plan

  1. Securing & visual inspection: Foto-/Video-Dokumentation, Bauteile, Leitungswege, Anschlussbereiche.
  2. Dokumentation: Installation documents, test reports, component lists, incident report.
  3. Technical Review: Damage pattern, potential fault points, thermal/electrical influencing factors.
  4. Focus: PV-side causes vs. external influences (e.g., surroundings, roof penetration, connection).
  5. Action plan: Sicherung, Wiederinbetriebnahme-Check, Austausch-/Sanierungsempfehlungen.

Results

A technical finding was prepared with documented evidence and a delimitation of plausible causes. From this, concrete steps were derived for safe restoration and for assessment vis-à-vis third parties.

Outcome: Documented facts plus technical assessment as a basis for insurance, remediation planning and, if needed, legal clarification.
