Are plug-in solar kits legal in the UK?
Answer
Yes. Plug-in solar kits are legal in the UK when installed and used in accordance with current UK electrical regulations. Always follow the manufacturer's installation instructions and connect the system to a suitable outdoor socket installed by a qualified electrician.
Do I need planning permission?
Answer
In most domestic situations, planning permission is not required. However, if you live in a listed building, conservation area or leasehold property, you should check with your local authority or property owner before installation.
Can I install a plug-in solar kit myself?
Answer
The solar panels and mounting system are designed for simple assembly. However, the kit should only be connected to a suitable outdoor electrical socket that has been installed and certified by a qualified electrician.
Can I monitor my solar generation?
Answer
Yes. Every kit includes a smart microinverter with built-in WiFi and Bluetooth, allowing you to monitor energy generation and system performance through a compatible smartphone app.
Is the inverter waterproof?
Answer
Yes. The supplied smart microinverter has an IP67 protection rating, making it suitable for outdoor installation when installed according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Can I use the electricity immediately?
