I installed a 12kW system with a 5kW export limit on a friend's property (5kW being the maximum level set by Western Power for his system). It would regularly trip inverters out due to high voltage during mid summer (and his motor capacitors had a tendency to fail prematurely!). Eventually he compla...

That's pretty impressive! What's your maximum export - 3.68kW? Have you tried asking for more? Around here, Western Power ALWAYS said 3.68kW, but then after the FIT goldrush subsided, they started regularly offering people 5kW or even sometimes higher, if their neighbours didn't have PV also.

Are there any DIY options to get equipment to talk to Octopus's battey-charging tariffs? Or is the only option an 'approved' inverter such as Sunsynk?

That's a nice polytunnel - working well, too!

Im not suggesting you're wrong. I'm interested in the mechanism which would render it unsafe. Understanding why repairs on the sidewall are not recommended is relatively easy - the side wall flexes significantly with every revolution of the tyre - which would put additional cyclic stresses on the re...

Problem I've got is that the FIT installation is on someone else's house - so I'd have to get them to switch electric supplier, and that might not be what they want to do!

A year ago, I reported OVO to the Energy Ombudsman due to failings dealing with FIT systems. It's now been escalated to Ofgem, as they have refused to engage with the Ombudsman for the last two months, and failed to comply with Ombudsman's decision. I really want to move them to a different FIT supp...

Anyone else had 'Cosy Octopus' suddenly appear on their Octopus app for no good reason? Noticed it arrived yesterday and yet I am on the Intelligent Octopus Go tariff. Is it so that we click on the 'Let's Get Started' button and accidentally transfer from IOG to Cosy Octopus with rather worse rates?!

Any idea why a repair near the edge of the tyre is so much more of an issue. I've repaired a few like this,and not had any issue. The sidewall is obviously different - flexes a lot more, is more load-bearing and has a different construction. But the edge of the treaded section is the same as the mid...

I love Looe. As a child, that was where we went on holiday every year.
