Solar jobs used to be exotic, now they're just Tuesday
When I was new, a solar install was a big deal that took planning. Now it's COMMON, and the rules are always updating. Do you think this push for green energy is making us better electricians?

A veteran electrician told me solar work sharpens your troubleshooting skills across the board...

Hold on, that's a stretch. Solar is its own little world with inverters and batteries. Fixing a house's regular wiring teaches you way more about the actual electrical code and common problems people have every day.

That bit about solar work sharpening your troubleshooting is spot on. I used to assume it was pretty straightforward panel work, but @anderson.jason is right, it forces you to trace problems through a whole different system. It definitely makes you a better all-around tech.
