As this forum gets a lot of examples of bad work throughout the PV forum, we thought it would be a good idea to have a thread showing examples of how it should be done.

This isn't about ego stroking - this about showing the high volume of public traffic that come through here that some of us do actually care about the work we do.

Go ahead and post some pictures.

Nice work, are they Panosonic and are they allowed to be clamped on the side edges?

Also is that just a 4mm Flex used for AC side or Hi-tuff?

Like the idea of the sticker for the inverter with your details on as well!
 
Guys - the pictures are for illustration - not picking at - the title say LG250 - yes they can be clamped short side otherwise i wouldnt have done it - yes its 4mm 3 core flex. why?

Not picking at all! Just wondered, should have read the titles :s Not used LG.

No reason again just curious if it was flex or not.

This PV system and project came second at the National Renewable Awards, Ricoh Arena, September 2012.
The category was the "UK best residential renewable project"

The category was won by British Gas !
 
Sometimes we even have to re-roof it first :)
