Kevin is right on about this too. I just passed on a project, where the
customer insisted they needed a 3 Kw array, but wouldn't share the load
calculations (and they expected a 5 yr warranty!) I knew if we were
having trouble communicating now, it would only get ugly when they were
sitting in the dark later.

If a client does not want to do this process, I generally pass on the
job. From experience the client who is unwilling to do proper load
analysis is the first to threaten legal when it doesn't work. Many
times years later they come back with tail between legs for help and
more willing to follow the process.

other"micro" loads
What do you do for very small off-grid systems that people want
for specific equipment? Do you have a "go-to" configuration, or do
you size and design everything custom?
For example, I frequently get, "I want to run cameras at a remote
site and the total requirement is 100W, 24 hours a day."
It's not economical to reinvent the wheel every time.
