Hi guys,
We have had a new bathroom fitted, which includes an electrically heated (no mist) mirror with LED lights. We have noticed that the cable to the mirror has been run from the loft space, out to an external wall, and then down the external wall, then back into the house to the mirror...
Evening girls and guys,
My quesion is when you get your card renewed, do you send certified ceritificate copies or just
standard photo copies. I had this three times that JIB insisted on certified copies. This meant going
to a solicitor who charged £15.- per copy. So, threecertificates, the...
Does anyone know any panels that are around 600mm or less wide? I've been searching everywhere and can't seem to find anything.
Any help would be appreciated
Have been reading a whole range of threads on here regarding ccu changes and then issuing certificates. As well as working on circuits that do not or will not meet current regs.
Eg : When changing consumer units, are we certifying the whole installation or not ? , as most customers i visit...
Hi, a bit of advise needed I think. Following the theft of a bike from my garden this week I am hoping to upgrade the old outdoor bulkhead light by my back door with a PIR controlled floodlight. I'd like to use the existing wiring to feed it and fit a separate PIR which is linked to a new flood...

Guys - I am sure this has been answered but I am not clear.
I have been advised by two installers that if I have a 4kw system ie 16x250w panels I don't need a DNO providing the inverter is not capable of or is limited to 3.5kw as can be done on the SunnyBoy. He said he installs all systems...

Hi fellas. I'm pricing a job in deepest Cornwall which is around 100 metres from the sea. Obviously sea mist will be an issue and I wondered what panels you were using to negate this issue. I am looking at Day 4 panels but these seem a little overpriced. Any advice is welcome.
I know a roofer that has a spark and a labourer and are keen to install solar PV. He has requested that he subcontracts my services as an MCS installer out to allow them to get certified. Does anyone know how I can do this within the scope of the scheme and what paper work I need to generate...
We are bidding for a contract on the coast where corrosion from salt has been raised an issue. We have located the IEC 61701 cert which says the poly panels are certified for salt resistance but can find nothing about the mono panels and the 190w in particular.
I be grateful if anyone has any...
Many electricians are missing out on the PV industry because they are not MCS certified. It is expensive and there is a lot of red tape. H2 Solar Shop have teamed up with a certified installer who has agreed to inspect and certify installations across the country. This will be at a discounted...
