Hi all bit of advice needed first time using these inverters, does the array need earthing when using these inverters the system is on a PME supply?
I would use my own personal assessment based on risk and probability. We have to remember placing out of reach is not allowed for domestic installations, with that in mind could you possibly ignore the regulations? I do like grey areas, they are inbuilt due to the complex issue of proper design that ticks all the boxes.Yes that is understood so u are saying arrays need connecting to earth rod only if they can be touch from within the equipotential ie from a velox window
NO,Yes it's TNCS which is same as PME isn't it and surely if you put a earth spike down you are going to have two different earth potentials
again, NO, maybe mistaken for, but not the same,Sorry to be deviating away from original question Yes I understand earthing arrangements and understand what the letters are for correct me if I am wrong please T is terra French if I can remember for earth which means direct connection to earth second letter N is for neutral and it denotes how metal work of an installation is earthed the last two C combined and S separate indicate functions of neutral and protective conductors. So a TNCS system is basically a TNS but sheath or core is also neutral ie forms a combined neutral and earth and these are separate conductors on the installation side system also know as Protective multiple earthing
