Thanks all for the advice and suggestions. I will pass them on - I might have to go back again if they can't get hold of their usual electrician quickly (not surprisingly, was no answer yesterday, and I wouldn't be that surprised if they are rushed off their feet post storm)

Not really solar related, but wondering if anyone has helpful suggestions. Been at my in-laws this afternoon - they had a couple of power outages during & after the storm. After the first one their boiler sprung a leak, then after the 2nd one, one of the mcbs on the consumer unit will not reset....

I have just looked at my Octopus account and seen the invitation to jo...

The snow is all frozen, so it's not going to brush off. I am now getting a massive 2W from the hoymiles and 160W from the sunsynk (which are half clear due to a bit of melting and slipping) I'm slightly concerned about my van, which has an 80W panel on the roof, and trickle charges the main battery ...

Signed up, ready to go

I've been away for a couple of days - wondering why my hoymiles panels, were reading literally 0

(clue - it's the hump on the roof)
