I was just wondering if it's still the case that solar panel installations are rated to 16 amps single phase does this apply to all single phase generators on domestic installations

In general, yes.
It is in theory possible to get permission for a larger array, but the requirements are complex and such installations are very rare.
AFAIK, the limit is 16 amps per phase, so 3 installations are permitted on a three phase supply., or two on split phase.
