Solar PV

What is the classification code on an EICR for Solar PV installed on one side of a split load RCD consumer unit?

  • Probably need more information/context and also maybe some pictures.

    When was the CU/DB installed?

    When was the solar PV installed?

    Was it installed by an accredited MCS approved installer?

    Is there battery storage?

    Other points of note

    Is there Type 2 SPD present?

    Is there AC and DC isolation on the PV install?

    Type of cable used for array and is it clearly labelled up as DC power

    Is there a copy of G98?

    Personally I think that Solar PV should be fitted to a fully RCBO populated board (CU/DB)  with SPD.  Caveat bi-directional.  This is as a starting point for Diversity and Earth Leakage.
