How many times can I claim solar tax credit?

Hi,

I was wondering how many times I can claim the solar tax credit. For example, suppose that I already claimed the 30% tax credit for a solar system that I installed. Now I want to upgrade the system adding a couple of more panels. Can I claim the tax credit for that upgrade?

Thanks!

Deleted prior comment -
You can claim the solar credit for the new equipment being purchased and installed, but not the original equipment where the credit has already been applied.
