Hi, we are just about to take on 2 separate 10kw PV systems and am still not 100% if I have given them correct info on FIT. I have spoken to NAPIT about this but there is a couple of technical guys there who are absolutely crap on PV stuff and I always seem to get them on the phone.

I hope I am right in thinking that a 10kWp system with 3 x 3.6kwp strings feeding into a tri-phase inverter will be eligible for the 43.3p rate as each phase is under the 4kw limit?
If this is the case what should I enter as the DNC for the DNO notification and MCS cert as I have never seen anywhere on there forms where you can put 3 phase x 3.6kw etc?

The other thing i am unsure of is one of the systems has the 3 separate strings on difference roofs and have different number of panels. So the strings will not be generating at the same level.. ie string one = 14 x 240w panels facing South with no shading string two = 12 x 240w panels facing east with moderate shading string 3 = 14 x 240w panels facing west with slight shading
So the 3 strings will never be balanced. Would it still be correct to use a Sunnyboy 10Kw tri-phase or 3 separate single phase Inverters.
And a 3 phase generation meter or single?


I hope someone will be able to help.
Cheers, Matt
