I've given him the contact details of ABB to arrange the replacement unit, however he needs someone local to swap it over for him.
There's the...

Hi,
ok, can someone explain because I'm confused and never know what to tell people.
so you have a normal supply into your house, and you have PV on your roof.
why or how is it that your consumer unit chooses to draw its power from the PV and not the grid?
how does the power back feed in to...

Our Solar PV installation is protected by a 30mA RCD in it's own CU which regularly trips during the morning inverter startup at this time of year (when the roof is persistently very wet). We have a transformerless grid-connected Power One Aurora inverter, and I...
A few weeks ago, I had my solar panels remove from my roof and then replaced. Sadly, on removal, one panel was warped and on letting the fixing screws go, the panel glass cracked.
My set up is / was 16 Kyocera KD210 panels wired in 2 strings of 8 in series, then parralled, feedning into a...

Hi there,
for a friend's boat, he has constant access to 240v shore power (and a galvanic isolator), but still wants batteries for whenever shore power stops working, or if he wants to go and cruise for a day or two. He needs a charger to keep the batteries topped up, and an inverter for...
We have one site causing us serious grief
It has a solar edge system on 8 panels: 4 east 4 west @ 15° (2kWp)
It has over 2 years 'blown' the fuse on 4 inverters, as it a non replaceable item, each time needs a replacement inverter.
We've monitored the AC supply over an 8 week period and both...
Hi,
this is the back of a record player that I want to install on a boat (with 12v lead acid batteries). Do I need a pure sine wave inverter to get it to work properly, or would a modified sine wave inverter do the job appropriately.
It's only 45W so I assume I could power it with this...
Hi all. I am looking for a 3rd opinion on a recently completed install at a friend of a friends property. I am PV installer (17th edition, Part P, 2394&2395, NVQ3), I did not install this system.
- The property has a 3 phase supply.
- The electrician has taken 25mm tails from the main fuses...
Hi All,
Many thanks in advance for any advice, I know this is the place to ask:blush5:
Basically I am a 'consumer' who's having a pv array fitted and I want to check what the contractor's intending to do. I built my current house so I don't want it going up in flames! Unlikely but I'd rather...

I'm not an electrician, just a householder (though do work in an area given a kick in the family jewels by government decision last year). I am technically minded so want to understand that proposed systems are worth the spend. I have a decent south facing roof space that can take around 25-27...
Hi, I'm a new member; just joined the forum. Thanks for taking the time to read this, would appreciate any advice...
My landlady has just installed a 4kWp solar PV system in the house I rent, and I think there are problems with the wiring:
1. There are no isolation switches anywhere in the PV...

As the title says, I was called by a company that fix aeroplane parts, they have a machine that is used for testing generators, it's stopped working and I was asked to have a look. I've told them it's way out of my depth and I pretty much don't have a clue, but said I would stop by and get a...
