[QUOTE="binky, post: 557858, member: 490"] You have to remember we are fitting power generation on a roof with the potential for severe consequences like fire or panels flying off in a gale. You would not want Mickey mouse gear being used. No different to general electrical gear which all has to meet CE and other standards. Prices of gear have dropped significantly, we were definetly being overcharged by wholesalers when PV first became popular. However, with no FiT payments, there is no need to be MCs registered, just ' competent' to fit the gear. Hence all the DIY installation questions we had during the energy crisis. MCS themselves are just a profit making quango, hence when membership plummeted after the FiT finished, they tried to stick their nose into EV charging and other technologies, claiming it was for the public benefit...
