To follow on from a rant a few weeks ago, does anybody else get the hump at having to pay £15 to search through a drop down menu of every single MCS registered PV product to find the panels they've just installed?
Or am I doing it wrong! Took me 10 mins on Wednesday to find one, its just taken...
Hi
I am drawing up a quote for a PV system. The property is a double bay semi detached property with a small dormer rafter pitch at the front, which is the south facing aspect of the roof. Due to the dormer pitch, we can only fit 5 x 195w panels, in a staggered formation, onto this south facing...

Hi, I'm looking into training as an electrician from pretty much ground level, since you can't do much more than change a lightbulb these days without the right certification. :p Unfortunately, my work requirements mean that I can't really attend college evening classes, so I'm looking at either...
