Above roof mounted PV system
on education centre
Wind & Sun role: System completion and correction
after bankruptcy of original installer.
Module type: Sharp (12 x 152Wp)
; Inverter: 1 x SMA SB-1700 (1.7kW)

This system had been installed under the
PV grant scheme by another installer for Gloucester Council.
However, it had been installed with various faults which meant the
grant could not be paid until they were corrected. In the meantime
the installer went bankrupt.
Wind & Sun were asked to correct the
previous installers mistakes so the Council could claim the grant.
Incorrect switch gear had been used and
incorrect labelling applied. The corrected system is shown in
the photo to the left.

DC Isolators should be rated for the
correct voltage and current and labelled as shown.
An AC Isolator which is lockable
in the off position only must be installed in the system.
Labelling must show the installer's
contact details and warn of the presence of DC and AC voltages.
Also a schematic showing the system
details and protection settings used must be displayed.
