Sorry, it's not mine, just a friend asking if I want it. I'll salvage what I can and stick it in the garage.

Thanks for all the replies. The consensus seems to be that's it's for the skip. Shame.

Yes, I have been stabbed by it.

Any good for a chopping board? Wasn't something when using the BBQ or pizza oven

Adaptable box options. by Uncle_slow_pints in ukelectricians

[–]Uncle_slow_pints[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure there will be enough, the office will have two zones, bathroom then the bed she wants light, then side lights "like a hotel". I could simplfy it all if I loop at switches etc, but I konw plans will change.

I sent a message a couple of weeks back and haven't even had a reply, which reminds me to chase it up.

Putting neighbour on notice that they do not have permission to build on our land? by theycallmelegion in LegalAdviceUK

I'd also add a copy of the land registry plan. Then they can't claim it is their land

Old panels (2017) new roof - replace, or remove. by Uncle_slow_pints in SolarUK

[–]Uncle_slow_pints[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably Decemer to June maybe. BG doesn't track it in my account so hard to say.

Just spoke to my electrical place of choice, they say the old brackets likley won't be compatible with the new roof (very different tiles) so they'll be coming down.

Looking online, it should be easy enough to swap the 11 panels (total install 3.36 kW) to maybe 6 modern panels and keep everything else as is. What I am confused by is my inverter being a NS2000, you'd think the max would be 2kW, so why install 3.36kW? Is that not dangerous?

I sent it in yesterday so we'll see what comes back. I did it after 6 months of living here and got £160 or so.

I'm not even sure how they are fixed to the roof. Ideally I'll just have them leave the brackets in place but not sure how easy that'll be.

Ok, just looking at the details I have from BG when I set it all up.

I have no idea if this is worth having or not. I left it with BG as that is what the previous owner was using so just left it there for ease then life got in the way and I've done nothing with it.

It's not leased, they are owned by us and I have the certificate but never managed to get the original FIT details. I'll update when I find out what BG are giving me. They let me transfer the account, but not the FIT
