    Tail sizes from PV sub-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.

    Tail sizes from PV sub-board

    Yes, this is the argument that is being used (well similar). I am sitting between an electrician saying it shouldn't be done and a contract engineer that is says there is no issue.

    Tail sizes from PV sub-board

    As I said I am not an electrician so bear with me. I am assuming you mean that if using the 10mm tails for the PV connection they should be fused down at the point of connection rather than using an HB.

    Tail sizes from PV sub-board

    These are domestic single phase installs with maximum 16amps generation. They are connected via a Henley Block to the main house tails and there is normally a 100amp supply head fuse.

    Tail sizes from PV sub-board

    808mm x 1580mm panels

    Evening all I am after a few of the smaller PV panels to replace some that have been viciously attacked by Rodents! The only ones I can find that are close are Panasonic 245w which are a bit pricey for this situation and I am not sure would work very well. The existing panels are 190w Antaris...

    Any ideas?

    We had one of our guys on site checking a 10 or so year old system today (not ours). It is set up as two single phase SMA inverters, on two separate phases of a three phase supply. Both inverters have the following error "VAC BER Disturbance" which is a high grid voltage error. When testing...
