Hi,
Anyone got any advice on addressable panels and dealing with faults. Installed plenty of conventional systems but not had the pleasure yet to work on any addressable.
I appreciate that there are many manufacturers and software needed...I'm just interested on what others here have worked...
Hi Guy after your best advice, been along to see a customer who is having trouble with his system which has been up and running for just over Four years and the original installers are no longer in business.
He has approx a 17kw system of Schott Asi 105 w panels on the roof Appox 162 info...
Hi,
A cable from my solar PV panel to the inverter was accidentally cut.
The PV panels had some safety mechanism installed and the guy who cut the cable did not get electrocuted.
I rang the original installer (***********) and they advised me that the entire system would have to be tested and...
Hi
Been searching for help on this but can't find anything similar on the Internet. We had panels installed on our domestic house and registered back in 2013 as at the time we had given up on extending due to major issues with the council but a stroke of luck last year meant we finally got...
Hi, do cheap chinese solar panels really perform less well than better constructed panels? (and how would you identify these better constructed panels?)
I am curious about whether they lose efficiency quicker over the years. Are there any numbers out there to quantify this loss of power over...

We have a couple of damaged Day4Energy 240w modules to replace and so far as I can tell this company no-longer exists. Well not in the same form as it did a few years ago anyway.
A new company has taken up the technology but are not producing these panels. They have suggested...
I am told by a local authority their tender is generic and performance based. However, here is the panel spec:
"The solar PV panels will have a performance guarantee for at least 25 years which will be backed by a global reputable organisation
All PV panels to have a minimum of a 25 year...
I've got a customer interesting in extending his 2.25kWp system, adding 1.75kWp more to bring it up to 4kWp.
My understanding is that I can install a separate inverter and meter and that this addition will be paid at the current FIT rate while the old meter gets paid at the old rate. Do I have...
We have a Landis gyr E110 generation meter for our solar panels. The reading has not changed since a long time. The red LED light on the right is a constant red ( and not blinking red). What could be the problem here? The installer says a call out charge to inspect it would be £120 and a new...

Hi all, i am looking for other opinion's and experience of fire hoods on LED panels within fire rated suspended ceilings. I have spoken to distributors and some say they have glow test reports for the LED fixture its self and they don't require them, but the building control officer says it...
Currently in the process of bringing some panels in from Europe for an 80kWp install. One of the guys I'm dealing with is offering panels which are not MCS accredited. As this is greater than 50kWp, do they need to be? Or is it still a requirement for the tariff?
Any info on this would be...
Hi,
Thanks for reading this and for your help in this matter.
i have a customer that has 4kW on their property and would now like more installed.
the case used to be that they would keep the higher tariff for the 4kW and receive a/the reduced tariff for the remainder.
there was talk this was...
Just now about to purchase a house which has solar panels currently installed on the roof. The current owner has a 25 year lease on the panels but part of the deal is that he will buy these out prior to completion and I will then take ownership of the pv equipment. The current setup is that the...
I'm not an electrician, just a householder (though do work in an area given a kick in the family jewels by government decision last year). I am technically minded so want to understand that proposed systems are worth the spend. I have a decent south facing roof space that can take around 25-27...
We've just installed a new 3-phase PV system onto a rebuilt community centre, where the pan is to bring in a new 3-phase supply. The new supply has been delayed, and the clients want to get the building up and running.
We can easily use a single phase conversion kit in the DB to provide power...
Hi all

So I was going to do an off grid system with a few panels (house has a south facing roof overlooking fields so no shade etc.... I was going to get a charger controller MPPT...
