Yes, I didn't want any of the equipment visible on the outside of my house and no suitable space on the inside of the house. The attic seemed the best option. I could install a vent with fan in the wall above the inverter if I find that the temperature is affecting the device. I could measure...

Right! I got you, thanks for clarifying that for me. I'll let them know to sort that out, I would have thought they would know this.

Sorry I don't understand fully, do you mean that it's a different make to the Main Consumer Unit and they should be the same make to comply with a regulation?

The MCB is the one in the picture below right? What is the reason for them needing to change it? No I haven't paid the balance yet. Still going to be a few weeks, waiting for a battery.

I wanted them to install all the breakers and export meter using the spare 4 redundant places in my main consumer unit in the house but they said they couldn't do it. Would have been neat.

Yes they did install that fuseboard as part of installation. I haven't seen any certificates as of yet. I'm in Wales. The installation isn't completed yet, 3 more panels to be installed (they ran out of roof mount rails for the panels). I guess they will give me all the documentation upon...

It was installed this last week, the installation is incomplete and they need to come back, hence my questions, so I can then ask them to put anything right that needs to be.

I think the generation meter is in the small white box to right of outdoor meter box, little LCD display to the left of brown and blue switches. The inverter does have a built in DC switch, the manufacturer stated that the additional ones are not absolutely required and would be more to improve...

Hi, I am currently having a solar system installed and would appreciate any feedback as some things don't sit right with me. Some things I've noted: 1. I think there should be isolator switches between the inverter and solar panels? 2. I wanted the fuse box with the export meter to be...

Room 2 is housing a hot water tank with a power supply. This isn't on the lighting circuit but could I tap into this power supply to light the room? If so how would you recommend I do it? There is one closed panel with all the wiring for the pumps/actuators. https://ibb.co/wY2dDKH And there...

Sorry about the drawing, I just found an image online that was easiest to edit. It is standard UK wiring i.e. brown, blue and yellow/green. There are three wires, brown and blue connected to 1 gang 1 way switch, the earth wire is not connected to anything. I have drawn a new image which I...

Hi, I have room 2 without a light next to a room 1 with a light and switch, and I want to use the switch in room 1 to also power the new light in room 2. Is it possible to put a switch in room 2 back to back with the existing switch in room 1 and connect them in such a way that the lights...
