I was away at the weekend & the electrician came round to fix something. While there he decided to condemn an outdoor electrical light as he said it didn't have an earth. My wife didn't know better so she agreed to pay him.

I have had a solar system for about 8 years and it's always worked perfectly well until a month or two ago. The electricity bill suddenly shot up and it turns out the reading on the inverter has shot up too. Around 3500 units produced by a 4kw system in winter. I'm assuming these two things are...
