I sent certificate for Victron. I assumed as the Solar edge is an existing install the G98 would cover that.
They haven’t specified what inverter they require G99, I always assumed it would be the Victron. I am on holiday at the moment and will have to call them when I return to clarify.

I sent both, just noted that the SE was installed in 2015.

My experience with UK Power Networks left me thinking they haven't got a clue!

I had a look and it seems the Solaredge 3680 is not G99 approved, only G98. Hope this won’t be an issue but will speak to them on return home.

Yes, thank you, I found that document earlier today, however the ENA site shows only G98 compliant.
More research required, if in fact this is the issue.

It will only need to comply with what was in force at the time it was installed, mine was installed in late 2015, but now I'm home looking through past emails it doesn't look like I sent a certificate for my existing install. It was detailed on Form A.1, and noted as installed in 2015.

Spoke to SP earlier. What they required to be added were labels at each inverter saying “G99 protection in inverter” at Victron and “G98 protection in inverter” at the Solaredge. Apart from that diagram was ok. Will now wait for result.
