g59 paper work x 2 good money paid we sign off

[solarsparkie]

Urgently need someone to do 2 x g59s ( the inverters are g83 compliant ) so I will sneak them through dno must be completed prior to 12 noon friday will pay cash mark 07866 777 474

 

[solarsparkie]

oh we will sign them off too

 

[bumcrack]

How can you get g59 compliancy with g83 inverters?

Even if your inverters are g59 compliant, and it's a g59 sized system, the DNO will want to witness settings before it can go to grid.

 

[solarsparkie]

is that a site inspection ? luckily they are 8 minutes away from site , and a 50 pound note will encourage one of em to cut short his lunch hour

 

[solarsparkie]

I hear that if plenty capacity on local transformer that they are able to rubber stamp smallish installations this is 27 kw and we could split it into two if need be as the hotel has two monthly meters if the inverters are also g83 comliant the danfoss tlx series happen to be both

What do you mean by 'do 2 x G59s'?

 

[solarsparkie]

have two sites requiring dno approval our mcs contractors havnt done the paperwork and g59 i am not familiar with the paper work i just know that it hasnt been done and i have a shed load of money sitting on two roofs that i may not get paid for

 

[solarsparkie]

luckily I have a couple of contacts at SSE as have organised several half hourly connections in the past , and may be able to pull a few strings to get this rushed through

 

[SolarCity]

What size are the systems?

You have literally no chance of getting DNO approval at this point in time. The paperwork needs to go in well in advance so that they can examine the potential impact of the site.

I wish I could help but I don't think there is anything I or anyone else can do.

 

[SolarCity]

The DNO needs to approve your set up first of all, and then they will want to have it tested - this needs prearranging also. The whole process normally takes around 6-8 weeks at best - and this was in less mental times.

 

[solarsparkie]

thanks is there a form I would like to try if you have a blank or a copy of one you have done as a teplate could you email it to me

[SolarCity]

what DNO are you under?

 

[solarsparkie]

is this a fall back position if dno not possible
there are 3 x 8kw inverters installed and 3 generation meters which are both g83 and 95 compliant 27 k pv on the roof at present they are linked to one 3 phase consumer unit but there is a second available can I get dip**** mcs company to register 2x 8 kw on each 3 phase supply by insisting they wire up the seccond meter as well and split the system up then only a third would be at lower fit rate I know it wouldnt work next year due to reg changes in january

 

[solarsparkie]

sse thanks

 

[solarsparkie]

Ok there is no solar within half mile, the property was originally two hence the two 200 kva supplies on site 24 k pv is a drop compared to local transformer capacity would they really need to come see

 

[solarsparkie]

bugger i have to go lynch the mcs guy he appears on site then buggers off and is hard to catch my mobile is 07866 777 474 but will look in on email later

 

[solarsparkie]

have a good one all

Yep!

They will want to confirm the settings in the inverters if g59. Whoever goes to site with the DNO will need the appropriate access to the inverter settings to do this.

 

[solarsparkie]

its not what you know its who you know ! all done thanks for everyone that tried

 

[SolarCity]

its not what you know its who you know !

It must be! You really went through a whole G59 process in a matter of hours?!

 

[bumcrack]

What did this whirlwind g59 witness test/ sign off consist off?

 

[solarsparkie]

What did this whirlwind g59 witness test/ sign off consist off?

12 years in the electricity game , so lots of contacts and a big overtime bill , if you know who to talk to and will pay enough anyone will forego their lunch hour , so i have every install straight delivered on time and by the book

 

[bumcrack]

No, I didn't ask if you were a big time Charlie with 12 yrs under your belt ( man and boy, lol )

I asked what your g59 witness test & sign off consisted of.

 

[bumcrack]

so i have every install straight delivered on time and by the book

Funny that, this time yesterday you were filling your trousers that you wouldnt get it done on time.

 

[solarsparkie]

your absolutly right , luckily i didnt have time to eat so only minor disruption on the trouser front .

 

[bumcrack]

So are you going to answer the question?

 

[powervan]

[JD6400]

I reckon this whole thing was a windup fellas !

 

[powervan]

with them kind of connections Y would u need solar PV !! just connect free !!

 

[bumcrack]

I reckon this whole thing was a windup fellas !

Not sure you would post your works email and phone number up on the Internet for a wind up.

I reckon someone has dropped a big clanger !
