hi, how many registered sparks do you have in your area, i checked on elecsa, niceic and napit and have 12 in a 20 mile radius doin eicr's. would just like an idea of how many are about and how many are coming in.
I have been keeping an eye on the number of new and total companies registered for PV, the last fortnight seems to show that more companies decided not to re-register as those that registered for the first time, its only small numbers which equates to just six extra companies added to the total...

Hi guys,

This is the nice new shiney CU (and yes there is an EIC for this!) and given I'd viewed the EIC prior to starting, checked the EFLI for the circuit I wanted to add to and I must say I...
