So yesterday was cloudy and finally generated 3kWh so that’s great.

Today approx 6:45 saw it generating 250volts and plugging away so all the issues of not generating around this lower voltage seem to have sorted themselves after the first day of operation.

Note to future self- leave inverter on connected to PV for a day before starting to worry!

I was away until today, system generated a lovely 111 units of garage electricity in 10 days to help reduce household consumption.

Great to see PV working with now no effort now required, apart from planning future expansion projects!

Cheers mate, so happy that the panels that were sitting under a tarpaulin on the decking and the inverter that was sitting in the floor in my office that I bought separately during lock down are paying dividends and at least off the decking to let that get used now.
