Given the new degression mechanism to the Feed-in Tariff scheme for PV what is likely to happen next?
Current installs for sub-10 kW systems are running at only 48 MW per quarter (taking the most recent MCS database figures the weekly average is just 3.8 MW).
If the installs are below 100...
Hmmm...how to explain this ...
L1 ....Permanent feed via key switch to battery pack. (OK to termination point which leads to battery)
L2.....Switchline to lighting
Now I flick the keyswitch which opens circuit and light is by battery power.
What about L2,...? is there a coil in the fitting...
Thinking ahead...............In the future should say your panels or Inverter fail, what do the rules & regulations say as to what you can replace with in the event of NOT been able to replace with exactly the same items ??
Should you have a Solar PV install and suffer a power cut/failure from the grid when power generation is at its highest - does your system continue to work by self provision or should it go off immediately, is there a safe way with use of say an UPS unit for example to allow the continuation of...
Hi,
Just a hypothetical question for now - if a customer installs say 8 panels and gets the 43p FIT, then next year they add another panel or 2 (lets assume they use the same inverter as it has some spare capacity), what would happen to their FIT?
I can see 3 options:
FIT paid at higher rate...
If I have an existing 1.92kWp system (getting 43.3pFiT) and, after 12th December, I add another 2kWp of extra panels onto the existing system at the same address, does the whole 3.92 kWp system then still get 43.3 p or does it all have to be re-registered and then all only get 21p?
I know the...
Title says it all.
Admitting my inexperience here, but yesterday I was working on some machinery wired in star without the neutral connected outside the device.
If all phases are balanced then N has no current flowing down it!
One of those things, it is obvious if you think about it, just have...
Hi,
Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I just got the email, telling me I've passed my AM2, just wondering, what I have to do next, as there's no further information.
Will I just get sent my certificates, or do I have to send anything off? :\
My portfolio's all complete and been sent...
As an MCS installer with big solar panels right on the roof above the front door were my letterbox is i get the attach flyer - now dont want to sound bitter about the competition, but i felt it was tad mis-leading - it says earn £65k over 25 years!! what you cant see easiley is its based on...
Hi all, saw my brother over Xmas and he has a problem with battery chargers fusing out when he turns them on, now blown 3 different ones. All other things work ok.
Any suggestions would be helpfull before i call round to look, thanks in advance.
