Have not come across a consumer unit with solar fitted before, have been asked to replace the CU, at the moment the CU is a old plastic type with a RCD fitted covering half the circuits, I will be fitting a 17th amm3 CU, now, the question I have is, im presuming the 16A mcb that is currently coming from the solar needs to be fitted independently of any other circuits on its own busbar (because of the disconnection time) but the question is, and excuse me if im being dumb, the power from the solar enters the CU via this MCB, if its not on the same busbar as anything else how can the power be used?
there is a solar Iboost fitted also to the immersion heater/tank, surely if the solar isnt on the same busbar how will the power be utilised by the iboost?
finally, how is the solar MCB treated with regards to testing and filling in the EIC
thanks,
