Electricity

Is your meter cupboard suitable for solar panels?

Why electrical adjustments are important

  1. Electricity grid capacity: Solar panels add extra load to your home's electricity grid. It is essential to check whether your current electrical system has sufficient capacity to handle the extra energy from the solar panels. Sometimes upgrades are necessary to prevent overload.

  2. Safety and Compliance: Electrical adjustments may be necessary to ensure that your electrical system complies with applicable safety and building codes. This may include upgrading wiring, outlets and switches.

  3. Optimization of energy use: Electrical adjustments can prepare your home for more efficient and effective integration of solar energy. This may include installing a smart meter, an energy storage system or energy management technology.

  4. Maximizing the benefits of solar energy: A well-suited electrical system can help maximize the output of your solar panels, allowing you to save more on your energy bills and get a higher return on your investment.

    In short, making electrical adjustments to your home before having solar panels installed is crucial to ensuring that your system is safe, efficient, and performing optimally.
