Does this diagram include a battery?

No. It shows a grid-tied system with no battery storage. Add a battery and charge controller in ArcSite for a hybrid or off-grid setup.

Can I add more panels to the array?

Absolutely! Add panels and rewire the strings in ArcSite to match the system size you're quoting.

Can I draw the roof layout too?

Definitely. Place the array on a measured roof, and the panel layout sits right next to this wiring diagram in one project.
