PV flush downleads

lyledunn

New 3-storey house. PV panels on roof and inverter in garage on ground floor. Not unreasonably the client wants the downleads flush mounted. The proposal was to flush mount them in the masonry walls in steel conduit for the route from the loft area, down through bedroom on the top floor and TV room on first floor to garage on ground. No through boxes or the like to indicate cabling below. This is not a one-off situation as the client has a site of 40+ units. Done carefully, I can’t see too much of an issue but I just feel a tad uncomfortable. Any views?

    I would be happier with there being a dedicated service duct with the conduit running up through it.

    We at the point in time when all new homes need a plant room and service ducts rather than equipment such as inverters and storage batteries being shoved in lofts and cables being dangled here, there and everywhere.
