Just fitted some 10 Low Bay Led all wired in steel trunking. Have just noticed my volt stick light up on 3 cables that are not even connected to anything. Gets volt meter out and I've got 38v on it. Seems a hell of a lot. Anyone else found this with LED power supplies
So I've just fitted a 12 panel system to my own property in Leicester. I'm 2391 inspection and test qualified but don't really want to go to the expense of doing the course to be mcs as I am already to busy and don't see the market growing now feed in is so low. Is there an independent test...
Yeah inverter manual doesn't say anything but with the cable been less than 50mm from the surface of the wall I thought it would be necessary or advisable.
Thanks Phil.
Just started doing my solar array. I'm 2391 trained but never done any solar before
Wanted to know do I need to earth my PV rails. I'm using a Solar edge inverter. If so is it 10mm back to board. Thanks.
Also is it worth putting Rcd and M C B straight off AC side of inverter

Have sized my system on the solar edge designer software. Now thats telling me I need a...
Sgt Woulds thanks very much for the information. Access is not a problem as it's on a bungalow. I have been thinking about battery storage and wiring. I have plenty of wiring experience as I'm 2391 commercial sparky. What would you recommend, I was looking at the sunny boy energy but not sure...
That's interesting to know. I thought with the guarantee on micro.s been a lot longer than conventional I presumed they would be a lot better.
My roof is not overly shaded but is easy to get on to as it's a bungalow.
Next question is then about sizing up a normal inverter?
Hi thanks for reply. Already got my panels as I brought them from an auction. Got 12 Benq 333watt panels and was planning on using 6 inverter with two panels in parallel on the recommendations of the manufacturer.
Can find a G83/1 certificate for them or will that not comply now?
Hi not been on here for ages. Decided to put some solar panels on my house and was going to use some A E micro inverters. Does anyone have any experience with them?
