then you'll have 2 30mA RCDs in series. not only will you have no discrimination, but you'll have no division of circuits in the case of a fault tasking out the entire installation.

Tel that was n.i.c 's answer as well.

Tell the good old nic ure gonna sling non-maintained emergency lights in every room LOL just incase the installation decides to die ...

They're full of shyte anyway so you may aswell fling some of it back there end
 
No DC isolator.
Just a FYI, those sunnyboy inverters have a black plastic pull out at the base that's actually a dual pole cut out, and classes as a DC isolator, so that aspect of the install wasn't actually a problem.

probably more by luck than judgement though.

Believe me I'm no solar expert but I believed the dc isolator had to be lockable. I'm probably wrong though.
 
Lol.... Clever stuff that capping!

always amuses me when the decorator insists he thinks I should be using capping so that people can tell where cables are with one of them thingies.... Until I bring in a bit of plastic capping.

equally amusing is how many that feign competancy cling to the belief that its somehow `mechanical protection`...



never ceases to amase..
