Hi Lads,
Anyone here sat a trade test for AMEC? I've got one this month and was after a heads up on the questions they ask. Im COMPEX trained and work on a gas site at the moment so I'm not worried but I hate doing anything blind.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I am still relatively new to the forum and the trade in general and I have been fortunate enough to work on a complete house rewire and consumer unit change.

I’ve got an awkward job to quote for. Take a look at the picture. I’m thinking of going for silver Hyundai 250s. I can fit 8 panels on the west facing roof, 4 facing east and 2 facing south. Some shading from the chimney on the south facing panels in the morning. Need to work out what inverter...
Hi All,
Apologies for the consumer-oriented questions, but this seems to be one of the best forums on the web for discussing PV.

Hi all,
I'm sure this has been asked before but.... I'm just about to buy an electric shower for the annexe, water pressure is just over 1 bar, the question is, is there much difference between the 8.5, 9.5 and 10.5 kW showers in terms of temperature if your water flow is average.
Thanks for...
I hope someone on here can help with an opinion on my install.
The system was installed in December to beat the original deadline. I was quoted for 14 Bosch or similar panels and an SMA or similar inverter. Basically they said they would install what they could obtain as supplies were short...
I've had a quote for a 4kWp system to include 16 x LG2501C 250W panels but the quoted inverter is a Fronious IG35 Plus.
Would this be a good choice of inverter or would the Fronious IG TL 3.6 be a better choice?
Hi Everyone,

I have ran the figures through PV SOL and it recommends i install it through 2...
hi guys
i am looking for some advice on my system. My installer and I are at a stalemate at the moment regarding the inverter he has installed.

Hi there - I'm a complete novice and hope very much that you might be able to help me? After an intense search, I have found 16x 250w HIT Sanyo panels due to be installed at the end of November to meet the FIT deadline. I have been offered a choice of 2 inverters: SMA 3300 or a 3801TL...
Having room for 16 south facing panels I got hung up on efficiencies and started to look at 16 of the Sanyo HIT-N240SE10 panel making a 3.84KW system.
I was recommended for similar money to go for 17 of the HIT-N235SE10 panel as this would be 3.95KW.
Yet from a configuration point of view 16...
