Solar Repair & Battery Backup Services in Las Vegas & Henderson
Not every solar company offers dependable service and repair after installation — Penny Electric does. We diagnose, repair, maintain, and upgrade existing residential solar and battery systems across Las Vegas and Henderson. Licensed electricians — not a new-install sales crew.
What Our Solar Services Cover
Solar repair and battery service at Penny Electric means one thing: keeping existing residential systems producing safely after the original installer has moved on, stopped responding, or never sized the electrical side correctly in the first place. We hold Nevada Contractors License C-2 #74758 and perform solar service in-house with licensed electricians — not subcontractors and not a door-to-door sales operation.
Our scope covers the full lifecycle of service after installation: panel-level repair and performance testing when modules are damaged or strings underperform; inverter diagnostics and replacement when Enphase, SolarEdge, or Sol-Ark units throw errors or go offline; battery backup service for Tesla Powerwall, HomeGrid, Enphase storage, and other systems that will not charge or switch over during an outage; full-system diagnostics when monitoring flatlines or your NV Energy bill climbs back up; and solar inspections with NEC code corrections when a home sale, refinance, or Clark County review requires documented compliance.
Las Vegas and Henderson sit in one of the highest solar adoption markets in the country — and one of the harshest climates for equipment. Desert heat cycles stress inverter electronics, monsoon wind loads shift racking, and original installers who raced through the 2010s boom are no longer answering the phone. Penny Electric has been a local electrical contractor since 2008. When your system is not producing, we diagnose the electrical root cause and fix it to code.
We do not install new solar panel arrays. If you are shopping for a brand-new system, you need an installer — not us. If you already own solar and need it repaired, maintained, inspected, or brought back online, that is exactly what this hub and our five service pages cover. Every job starts with diagnosis and upfront pricing before repair work begins.
Battery backup adds another layer: a Powerwall or HomeGrid system ties into your main panel, gateway, and often your solar inverter. When storage stops charging from solar, will not discharge during a grid outage, or shows communication faults, the fix is electrical and software-adjacent — not a panel wash. We service existing storage systems and cross-link to our Powerwall installation page only when a homeowner needs a new install rather than repair.
Common Solar Problems We Fix
System not producing — monitoring shows zero or partial output while the sun is up — is the call we hear most often. The cause may be a failed string inverter, tripped AC disconnect, blown fuse in a combiner, optimizer string fault, or a breaker in your main panel that feeds the solar backfeed. We test production at the panel, inverter, and meter levels to isolate the fault before recommending repair or replacement.
Inverter errors and fault codes send homeowners to Google before they call anyone. Enphase microinverters flash red, SolarEdge inverters lock out after grid events, and Sol-Ark units log communication faults that clear only after proper reset and wiring verification. We read manufacturer diagnostics, verify grounding and AC/DC wiring, and replace units when repair is not safe or parts are obsolete.
Battery backup not working — Powerwall stuck in a state of charge, HomeGrid not islanding during an outage, Enphase battery showing offline — usually traces to gateway settings, firmware, breaker configuration, or a failed communication cable between storage and the rest of the system. This is distinct from installing a new Powerwall; we troubleshoot and repair existing battery systems tied to existing solar.
Original installer out of business or unresponsive leaves thousands of valley homes without a service partner. Monitoring portals expire, warranty claims go nowhere, and small faults become zero production. Penny Electric becomes the local licensed contractor on record for diagnostics, repair, and ongoing maintenance — with clear documentation for your records, insurer, or buyer.
Failed inspections and NEC code issues surface during home sales, insurance reviews, and Clark County corrections. Rapid shutdown requirements, labeling, grounding, backfeed breaker sizing, and service-entrance capacity all interact with solar. Our solar inspection spoke covers whole-home electrical inspection for solar-equipped properties, failed-inspection corrections, and panel or service upgrades required to pass — performed by electricians who understand both NEC and how solar ties into the rest of the home.

Solar Repair Services FAQ
Do you install new solar panel systems?
No. Penny Electric services, repairs, and maintains existing residential solar and battery systems. We do not sell or install new solar arrays.
My original solar installer is out of business — can you help?
Yes — this is one of the most common reasons homeowners call us. We take over diagnostics, repair, and maintenance when the original company is unresponsive or no longer operating.
What solar and battery brands do you service?
We work on existing residential systems including Tesla Powerwall, Enphase, SolarEdge, Sol-Ark, HomeGrid, and other major inverter, optimizer, and monitoring platforms already installed on your home.
Is solar battery service different from Powerwall installation?
Yes — our battery backup installation page covers new Tesla Powerwall installs. Solar battery service on this hub covers repair and troubleshooting of existing storage systems that are not charging, not switching over, or showing errors.
Do you handle failed solar or electrical inspections?
Yes — see our solar inspection spoke for whole-home electrical inspections on solar homes, NEC corrections, and service-entrance or panel upgrades required to pass inspection.
