Automatic Solar Panel Cleaner using ArduinoIRJET Journal
This document describes an automatic solar panel cleaning system developed using an Arduino. The system aims to increase the efficiency of solar panels by removing dust. It works by using sensors to detect when voltage levels from the solar panel drop due to dust, indicating reduced efficiency. It then activates motors to spray water on the panels and wipe them clean using brushes. This cleaning process continues until the voltage is restored. The document provides details on the system components, programming, and working sequence. It concludes that the system provides an affordable automatic cleaning option for smaller solar installations like residential rooftops.

3. Analysis shows the ERS system requires 18% less torque from a smaller, lighter DC motor, reducing weight and costs by 66% compared to conventional wiper systems while achieving similar performance.
Preconstruction, CM @ Risk, Weekly Design Meetings and Protecting Key Design ...D. Brown Management
Finishes and other key design elements are important for both the project owner and architect. A contractor providing preconstruction services must focus on protecting these throughout the design-development process.
If a contractor is only providing basic estimating services throughout design-development this is what happens:
-----------
30% - Budget looks good across the board - everyone is happy.
60% - Budget increases in critical systems including structural and MEP force value-engineering into the finishes because the design is too far along to cost-effectively make changes elsewhere.
90% - Budget for finishes is often cut further than the project owner or architect would like but there are few choices left.
-----------
The solution is rigorously managed weekly design meetings facilitated by the contractor and focusing on value-engineering each system throughout the whole design-development process. https://dbmgt.co/2RD1dAT
This is just as critical as protecting the overall budget (https://dbmgt.co/2WnXu95) and cash flow (https://dbmgt.co/2UkFvhU) of the project.
