- This was one of the hardest domestic solar projects we have tackled so far. Helping a wonderful customer get the install they always wanted.
With the consumer unit in the middle of the house, main electrical supply on one side and garage over the other it wasnt simple!
We have taken hard wired data, CTs and future provision for an EV to the garage and joined in a new solar array on the flat roof extension.
This customer now has the power to run off grid on power loss and keep the solar generating at the same time!
With an East/West split away that bell generation curve should really complement the usuage/system and was a good call by the customer at the last minute imho.

Huge thanks to Dan / dan_sparky_in_training
Also Mattie and Nathan for the usual epic standard of work.
Thanks Mark I had a great time 👊👊👊
Awesome video again, very interesting how you plan out the cable run from AIO to gateway, especially when you realise that a lot of properties have the incomer in the middle of it under the stairs.👍
Fantastic setup Mark. Great content video again👍
Why aren't new home developers made to install PV & Battery on houses they build.
Thank you! It’s even worse when they stick 2 panels on a roof to tick a box.
I will never understand why we waste the technology we have at our fingertips😢
Great video bud as always, how come you went with the growatt inverter instead of giv energy for both systems?
GivEnergy don’t currently have a string inverter in the range. Hybrid is quite costly when most of the function won’t be used. Lesson I’ve learned along the way lol.
@@electrician247 that makes sense, cheers for the reply
Interesting you went for east/west rather than all south, does the yield turn out bigger with fitting the panels in this orientation?
Was originally planned for south facing but due to the spacing between rows you have less panels so overall the generation is higher in this configuration.
East west splits more generally provide nice generation throughout a longer window of the day but true south is always best pound for pound.
To answer your question in this particular setup the east/west config gives the best generation due to the space available for more panels.
Thanks
@@electrician247 nice one, thought that might be the case!
Have you any info on bi-directional breaker for input to consumer unit .ta
The breakers are ABB and bi directional in the gateway. The consumer unit is Proteus and again rcbos and MCBs both bi directional. Data sheets are on the manufacturer’s websites.
@@electrician247 many thanks
Please explain your acronyms. What's an AIO?
All in one
