PE Stamping

State-Certified Engineering Stamps That Get Your Permits Approved — Fast

Every solar project faces one critical permitting requirement: Professional Engineering certification.

Without a PE stamp, your permit application sits in limbo. With the right PE stamp, from a properly licensed engineer in the correct state, your project moves forward confidently toward approval.

At Solartro, we provide licensed PE stamping services across all 50 U.S. states—both structural and electrical—ensuring your solar, battery, and generator installations meet every code requirement and pass AHJ review the first time.

From residential rooftops to multi-megawatt commercial projects, our PE-stamped plans are backed by licensed engineers who understand your state's requirements and deliver certifications that authorities trust.

Fast turnaround. Nationwide coverage. Trusted engineering review.

WHAT'S INCLUDED IN SOLARTRO PE STAMPING SERVICES

All 50 states coverage

Solartro maintains relationships with licensed Professional Engineers in every U.S. state.

Why State-Specific Licensing Matters:

Most AHJs require PE stamps from engineers licensed in their specific state. A PE licensed in California cannot stamp plans for a project in Florida—the stamp would be rejected.

Our PE Network Includes:

  • Licensed Structural Engineers (SE) where required (California, Texas, Florida, Illinois, Hawaii, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, Washington etc)
  • Licensed Electrical Engineers (some states require EE license for electrical stamps)
  • Multi-state licensed PEs (engineers holding licenses in multiple states for border regions)
  • Specialized engineers (battery storage, ground-mount, commercial/industrial, utility-scale)

No matter where your project is located—we’ve got it covered.

Why PE Stamping Matters

A PE stamp is not just a formality—it's a legal certification that your solar system has been reviewed by a licensed Professional Engineer and meets all applicable safety standards, structural requirements, and electrical codes.

The bottom line: In many states, PE stamps aren't optional—they're required by law. And even where not mandated, they're the difference between amateur and professional solar installations.

Many AHJs and utilities require PE-stamped plans to approve solar installations—especially for:

  • Structural load verification
  • Electrical safety & interconnection compliance
  • Battery storage & advanced systems
  • Commercial and utility-scale projects

A missing or incorrect PE review can result in permit rejection, redesigns, or extended approval timelines. Solartro helps you get it right the first time.

WHO NEEDS PE STAMPING SERVICES?

  • Residential Solar Installers — Most states require PE stamps for residential systems over 10-25 kW
  • Commercial Solar EPCs — PE stamps nearly always required for commercial/industrial projects
  • Ground-Mount Developers — Structural PE stamps mandatory for foundation engineering
  • Battery Storage Installers — NFPA 855 and NEC 706 compliance often requires PE review
  • Solar Brokers & Consultants — Provide clients with PE-certified designs for credibility
  • Out-of-State Installers — Working in a new state? We have local PE connections
  • DIY Solar Builders — Homeowners permitting their own systems need PE stamps

FAST TURNAROUND WITHOUT SACRIFICING QUALITY

We know permits are time-sensitive—delayed stamps mean delayed projects.

Our PE Stamping Turnaround Times:

  • Standard delivery: 18-24 hours (from submission of complete plans)
  • Faster than most competitors (many take 3-5 business days)
  • Priority delivery: 12 hours (for urgent projects—available with expedited fees)
  • Bulk/volume projects: Custom SLA (Service Level Agreements for high-volume partners)
  • Revision stamps: 6-12 hours (for minor AHJ-requested changes)
  • Weekend and holiday service available for high-volume partners

What We Need from You:

  • Complete permit plan set (structural drawings, electrical diagrams, calculations)
  • Project location (state, county, city/jurisdiction)
  • Specify stamp type needed: Structural, Electrical, or Both
  • Any AHJ-specific requirements or notes

How to submit:

  • Client portal upload (fastest—drag and drop files)
  • Email: info@solartro.com (for files under 25 MB)
  • FTP/cloud link: Dropbox, Google Drive, or your preferred platform for large commercial projects with many drawings

What you receive:

  • Permit-ready stamped plans (ready for immediate AHJ submission)
  • PE contact information (if AHJ needs to verify license or ask questions)
  • Invoice and receipt (for your project records)

Freequently Asked Questions

When is a PE stamp required?

Requirements vary by state and jurisdiction. Generally required for:
  • Commercial/industrial systems (almost always)
  • Residential systems over 10-25 kW (varies by state)
  • Ground-mount installations (structural PE required)
  • Older buildings or unusual roof structures
  • Battery storage systems (in many jurisdictions)
  • Projects in high-wind or high-seismic zones

What's the difference between structural and electrical stamps?

Structural stamps certify the system can safely support loads (wind, snow, weight). Electrical stamps certify the wiring, grounding, and interconnection meet NEC and local codes. Some projects need both.

Can I use a PE licensed in a different state?

Generally NO. Most AHJs require stamps from engineers licensed in their specific state. We provide state-specific PE stamps to avoid rejections.

What's the difference between a "wet stamp" and a "digital stamp"?

Wet stamp = original ink signature and embossed/raised seal on paper. Digital stamp = electronic seal embedded in PDF. Most AHJs now accept digital stamps; some still require wet stamps (we provide both).

How much does PE stamping cost?

Pricing varies by project complexity, system size, and stamp type. Contact us for custom quotes. Volume discounts available for installers with recurring needs.

Can you stamp plans designed by another company?

Yes! We can review and stamp plans created by any design firm, as long as they're complete and code-compliant. If corrections needed, we'll coordinate with you.

What if the AHJ rejects the stamped plans?

Rare, but if rejection is due to PE error (not scope changes), we coordinate free re-stamp with corrections. Our thorough review process minimizes rejection risk.

How fast can you deliver a PE stamp?

Standard: 18-24 hours. Expedited: 12 hours (with rush fees). Bulk projects: Custom SLA timelines.

Do you provide stamps for battery storage and generators?

Yes! Our PE network includes engineers specialized in energy storage (NEC 706, NFPA 855) and backup power systems (NEC 702).

What if my project is in multiple states (utility-scale solar farm)?

We coordinate PE stamps for multi-state projects, providing appropriately licensed engineers in each jurisdiction.
