Glen, I wasn't, where did you dig that up from!!!
keep us posted earthy, I'm interested to see how this pans out.
 
Don't worry Earthstone I am new here, I not found my feet yet, I am just putting across a few points that may not be considered, I am by no means upset as I hope the others are not
 
The fact that this topic started 3 days ago if you are asking about my post reference 3 days ;)

I feel the designer of the system should have placed the landscape panels at the bottom, it would provided more support of the higher panels and also utilize the bypass diodes, there is a chance that arrangement could have turned the energy production around, i calculate a 600% increase in effeciency. The supporting crafted wooden frame work is unpainted and of softwood, tantilised timber would have been a far more durable option extending the life of this install. The MCS assesor inside me is disapointed at the lack of colour coded cables and untidy cable routing, however if the system is correctly labled then it is but a minor non-conformaty.

But safe , and not about to blow of in a sudden gust !
If there are no fixings available at the time of install then the panels should still be in their boxes , no ifs , no buts !
I have to admit , if more links to individual company's were to be posted on here then i think there could be some more positive , and not so many smug replies from some on the forum ( Not just on the pv side ! ).

Babba be honest yourself, let people know who you are, I have, my name is true and up there. I am the Technical Director for Allbrite UK Ltd and SellGen Ltd , I am sure Andrew would agree its best to be honest. I have nothing to hide.

What does it matter who I am and telling you this will make me honest..???..I stand by what I said, I would have walked away from this job before it started, does that make me smug or honest...
 
I find it comical that everyone seems to be falling over one-another to deny being the culprit, while adopting a "holier than thou" attitude.

I have looked at some of the installs shown on your websites as examples of your own work.

In a lot of cases they don't comply with regs either.

If these are examples of your best work, then i dread to think about your worst.

Perhaps you should put your own houses in order before criticising whichever clown carried out the install above.
 
at least we don't hide behind a veil of annonimity though!
I am quite happy for anyone to look at any of my installs. I don't think you'll find issue. Thats why I put my name to my posts.
