What happens on the day
A renewables visit in Derby follows a fixed order: check the existing supply and consumer unit, run the solar cabling, wire in the inverter and isolators, then meter test everything before handover.
- Looking at the board and supplyThe job starts at the consumer unit, the box that holds the breakers for each circuit, and the main earthing. Both are checked so the solar supply can join the board safely. The spot chosen for the inverter, the box that converts panel power into electricity the property can use, is confirmed at the same time.
- Cable and isolator workNew cables carry the solar supply from the roof equipment to the inverter position and onward to the consumer unit. Isolators go on both sides of the system. An isolator is a switch that disconnects the solar supply cleanly for maintenance or during a fault.
- Joining the mains supplyYour mains electricity goes off for a short spell while the new circuit joins its own protective device inside the consumer unit. You will always hear before the power drops, so computers and appliances can be shut down first.
- Meter tests and running through the systemEarth continuity, insulation resistance and the safety shutoffs are all measured with test instruments once the connections are made. The day to day running of the system is then explained, test records are left with you, and every work area is cleaned before leaving.
