I’ve seen many installed this way that do not comply.If there are spare ways why are you not connecting direct to the dist board.

Installed in galv trunking perhaps as one method?Or if you apply 434.2.1

To prevent the chances nuisance tripping the main board.
Ok thanks, that makes a bit of sense. The pv board houses an rcbo for the pv and will have a din mounted generation meter. It will have no spare ways.
If you are worried your new install is likely to cause nuisance tripping then you need to reassess what you are doing as the best method is to install directly to the existing dist board providing there are spare ways.To prevent the chances nuisance tripping the main board.
I wouldnt say it’s the best way if there is spare way on a RCD protected way that shares the same side as a socket circuit for example. It would actually be non compliant due to how long the inverter takes to shut down which can be up to 5 seconds under G83.If you are worried your new install is likely to cause nuisance tripping then you need to reassess what you are doing as the best method is to install directly to the existing dist board providing there are spare ways.

Where does it state this would be non compliant, not had much to do with these systems so would be interested.I wouldnt say it’s the best way if there is spare way on a RCD protected way that shares the same side as a socket circuit for example.
