49 degrees is fine, if anything you get a whisker more in winter offsetting the little you might lose in summer Little real difference to annual figures, approaching 60 degrees may notice generation a bit more, now that's a challenge to scramble up a steep slope I've seen on some places My own is about 46.5 degrees, that was enough fun, but built the rails up sturdy to help ascend upwards Many roofs seem to have a slight flare on them towards guttering, makes "fun" tweaking the levelling the rails Thought it was a 3 phase inverter, but one of the new MIN 7000 to 10000 range of inverters (7000 or 8000 = 2 MPPT's, 9/10,000 has 3 strings) Nice, stands off the wall a little more, but helps with passive cooling 11/10 for IMO isolators, "you don't need them if inverter has one built in" (I bloomin' do, just think it makes any servicing easier plus isolate each string, than shut off all strings at inverter, plus IMO's reputation I believe is already established than rely on an unknown isolator inside any inverter used) Those Jinko's oh no, I don't like those silver lines.... You said they were all black... Once fitted - all them little lines vanish unless you are up really close on roof (I panicked too, truth be told, but they vanish and perform brilliantly, very very close performance to Aiko panels) Top install sir
Ive had this conversation with GivEnergy regarding the AIO. It is fine for trunking and isolators to be closer. The cocnern is with Walls, ceiling and large structures that prevent airflow/cause heat build up. So we are golden here.
So you mention "on the roof you have your TAP" at 28:45 - I wonder why these *need* to be on the roof? As it has no actual wired connectivity to the optimisers would it not be better to have these in the loft space near the TIGO optimisers? I think (with anything complex) these could fail and if they are more accessible then the loft location would be an easier place to replace them ?
It is always an option. On this weeks install we had the TAP in the detached garage next to the roof the optimisers were on. The trouble is were you win in some ways you lose in others. The working range on these is substantially reduced going through structures. While the optimisers can daisy chain data it is always better to have the direct comms to the tap and this is much more effective out on the roof. Especially on larger with installs with one or more taps. We always them as accessible as possible on the roof arrays so its considered and countered case by case. People have made the same argument about the actual optimisers but again logical but wrong lol.
Brilliant knowledgable man
Very good work. Very clear
Thank you
❤❤❤❤❤ keep doing more pls
❤❤❤❤❤
Really great vlog 👍
Lovely touch leaving wipes for future use.
Leave tough wipes behind? At that price, no chance.

Top install sir
Don't you have rules for the free distance (space) around the inverter
Fx 300 - 400 mm
By the way great work. 👍
