Query Regarding 2 Systems On 1 Building

[stevie gill]

We've been approached to install 2 small systems on a new build development - 2 flats contained within 1 building, but independent supplies.

The available roof space is limited and the builders are asking if we can install the 2 systems in a continuous run - eg so they appear to be one system, although they would be wired as 2 separate systems.

Anyone got any thoughts on whether this is legal etc, or do the 2 systems have to be split?



Regards,

As long as the electrical side is 2 complete separate systems wired to 2 MPANs with 2 owners then it should be OK. But who owns the roof?

Has Tedm says, its ok, we have done it like that a couple of times, the last one being 2 x 10kw on a roof in a large caravan park

Just to be on the safe side, I would ensure that the rails were not joined between the two systems and that there were end clamps on each rwo, i.e put it up and then cut the rails. It will still look like one system to the untrained eye.

Agree we've done the same before
