I would to know how easy it would be to install the panels myself?

I am a roofing contractor and could easily do the roofing aspect,but what about the other aspects of the installation?

I would suggest teaming up with an electrician to do the main wiring inside the property. It is law that you need a ‘Part P’ qualification to complete the internal parts of the installation, but you can certainly do the external roofing aspect of the install yourself.

Another issue to take into consideration is the feed-in tariff incentive which is currently available. This will need to be signed off by a fully accredited MCS approved installer.

I hope this helps with your enquiry.

Hi, wondering if someone can help.
I am looking to install my own pv system and battery storage. I was planning on mounting the inverter & running all cables to the inverter and connecting everything up, following regulations etc.
The question is, am I allowed? The plan was to have an electrician or Msc certified installer look over etc and connect to the grid. My worry is that they won’t want to do a final install on anything they haven’t done themselves.

So not sure what to do now, if I should go ahead or cancel my order for my equipment etc. or install an off grid system and power a few dedicated circuits in my home?

Any recommendations ?
Many thanks
Scott
