ONROOF SOLAR 4Kw SOLAR PANEL INSTALL
Fcr Electrical contractors latest solar panel system has now been installed in Blackpool, this system consists of a 4Kw solar array of 10 panels using the on-roof system.
The on-roof system is simply as it suggests, you mount a rail system on the roof which are fixed to the roof using Solar limpets which fix to the roofing battens. Once you have the rails secured to the roof then the panels simply bolt to the rail system. The only draw back to this system is you may get unwanted pigeons or seagulls nesting under them, to counter this you can fit a trim around the panels. Check out the video by clicking the link below

For this install we again installed the inverter inside the garage, this is for a couple of reasons, first it makes maintenance easy due to the easy access of the equipment, the second reason is for safety, the equipment is fairly heavy and also electronic, although very small there is still a fire risk which we believe installing the equipment in the loft ads to the hazards.
The inverter installed is a Solis 5.6Kw inverter and is easy to install and set up.
