    Best way to maximise export of generated electricity?

    I hope to install an 8kw panel array. I have spoken to 2 installers who both seemed a bit cagey about maximum export on a G99 Fasttrack application. In short one says I am limited to 3.68kw (which I thought was automatic on a G98) the other said 7.68kw but was selling a 5kw inverter on the...

    G99-SGI-3 4.4 kw set export limit phase to neutral loop impedance test on site

    G99 SGI-3 4.4 kw set export limit phase to neutral loop impedance test on site 0.309 ohms and dno max being 180 m ohms or 0.018 ohms so site reading are well over the top or is this not unuall for 1950 lead cable TN-s

    G100 Export Limitation - Multiple Single Phase Arrays - Three Phase Net / Vector Metering Limitation

    Hi I have three phase installed recently to increase generation. DNO approved the extra 2 solar arrays so we have 3.68KW FIT on one phase and 8KW on phase 2 with 6KW on phase 3 We are coming to the end of the install and my question is as the DNO have limited export to zero how do we share the...

    g98 or g99?, larger than 3.6kw but with export limitation

    hi if a pv system with battery storage say has an inverter of 7.5kw but has export limitation built into the inverter or installed as a seperate device and is set to limited to 3.6kw export, can this still come under g98 and be notifed to dno within 28 days of commisioning? or does it have to be...

    UK Help with Landis and Gyr import / export meter

    Hi, Our meter is an import / export Landis and Gyr. To supply Our readings We have to deduct the R from the T. The meter has now rolled over to 00*** so We can not deduct the R now as this would give a minus reading. Any idea how to give energy company a reading? Someone said add 99999 to...

    What export options are there currently?

    Hi guys, I can fit 15kwh worth of solar panels on my roof space, and i'm debating if I should either export to off set my electric bills or go off grid. The roof is on a commercial building but we only have single phase supply. So is it wothwhile exporting compared to going off grid? what are...

    App for net solar export

    Hi all, We have a 3.9Kw array (13 x Sapphire 300W Black Mono solar panels) on our roof with a Growatt 3600MTL-S mini inverter. All good and has been working fine since installation in 2018. However, the system does not give me a 'net' import/export value. I've been looking for a meter (wifi...

    How much energy is a UK household allowed to export each day?

    Hi, How much solar energy is a UK household allowed to export each day? Is the export limit a "net" limit, or an absolute limit? ..For example, if one day, i consume 30kwh from the grid, but export 10kwh of solar on the same day, than presumably the energy company takes that as me exporting...

    TNCS export to out buildings

    I have a house to test soon that has several sub-mains to out buildings, some t&e and some 2 core swa, and one to a swimming pool. The supply is TNCS and I know it should not be exported anywhere but what code should each one get on the EICR?

    Solar PV Performance Comparison Tool/Calculator

    Hi All, I've been curious for a while as to how my Solar PV is doing compared to a 'typical' install. Recently, I purchased a Smappee (which is darn useful), and I have also now joined pvoutput.org which is now building a clear picture around my generation and usage. However, I wanted a simpler...
