Solar Tripping M.C.B.

Zoomup
Evenin' All,


What would cause a domestic solar panel system to trip off its 16 Amp M.C.B. in the consumer unit if any of the below happens please?


a, Turn off and on consumer unit R.C.D.


b, Turn off and on Dedicated solar system isolator switch.


c, Turn off and on  solar system 16 Amp. M.C.B. in consumer unit.


All happened on an overcast drizzly day.


Thanks,


Z.

    That would be my first thought too; lots of older inverters have transformers in, plus the caps. What make/model is it?


     




    Hello Jam,

                          I have no details on the system as I was not there to look at it. Whilst I was there doing something else I noticed the problem. The system seems quite old though. Most solar M.C.B.s are B16 I find. They seem to operate o.k.
