This section is useful for recording additional information to be handed over to the customer, or electricians working on the system in the future. This may include:

Component Serial Numbers

There are 3 options for including serial numbers in the Handover manual:

2. Upload a .csv file with the serial numbers. Create a spreadsheet with just 1 column, and list 1 serial number per row in the same order they appear in the list on the commissioning page. Once the CSV file is selected on the commissioning page to upload, scroll to the bottom of the page and hit 'Save' to populate the data.

3. Copy and paste the serial numbers into the fields provided one-by-one
