Hi all,
I'm undertaking a project and just need people to fill in a 60 second, five question survey.
It's about attitudes to targeting clients and securing contracts.
Any response would be massively appreciated, here is the link->

Thanks! :icon6:
Just wondering what everyone's doing with structural calcs? I'm pretty sure our main competition doesn't do them at all (along with SAP calcs). We've been recommending them where we think they're necessary but haven't been doing them for every job. We found early on that local guys were going to...
I received an email with a link to NAPIT's survey about FiT consultations. It seems to be open for anyone to complete so I guess non-NAPIT people could express their views if they so wished.

Afternoon all,

Anyone know of any trade magazines for products/jobs etc.
Any trade shows coming up? Is the InstallerLive at the NEC a little too plumber based.
Lastly, how the heck do I learn to do an energy efficiency...

1) If the site is not 3-phase, then I will need to pre-notify the DNO. If the DNO approve 10kW, presumably it'll be a G59 application?

I've been asked to provide info on on snow, wind and dead loading on a PV system by a structural engineer. I've costed the system on Segen's web site. Its 1 row of 8 panels. They can't help with this info. Any ideas how I can provide this info.
Many thanks
Simon
Is anyone out there a member of the BPVA? I have received a survey request offering half price memebership. £500 instead of £1000. Sounds a bit steep to me are they a genuine representative body.
Apologies if you have seen this in a non PV section of the forum already.
There is another thread talking about the need for structural assessments but how do you pay for them?
Is the customer's deposit taken and a clause in the contract stipulates that if the structural survey fails (or re-enforcement is required but the customer doesn't want to do it) then the cost...

I'm new to pv (done training, but not yet done an installation).
Can anyone recommend tools, or a supplier, who deals with sun path surveying tools (I'm wondering if an old-fashioned sextant would be a useful purchase)?
Any other advice or info would also be welcomed.
Thanks and regards to all...
Hi,
i'm currently making a site survey form for solar pv installations. Was hoping someone may already have one so i can compare and see if i have missed any information required. As we all the know the site survey is key.
cheers
Hi guys, I'm looking for a pre-work survey sheet, template, so I can record test results such as Ze, Bonding, PFC etc for when doing cu changes etc, many thanks.
Just wondered if there are any companies that require PV surveys, as i know how difficult it is to try and do everything.....be in all places..
Travelling for the odd survey can be very time hungry, I have been found to be very cost effective for companies as it frees their valuable time up for...
