Sub board earth leakage trips when on at main DB
Correct I use a E/L tester at every job I do. I also find that all the E/L I test the test button has always indicated if the E/L is functioning correctly. Maybe one day I,ll find one that does not.

Correct

Sub board earth leakage trips when on at main DB
Just push the test button on the earth leakage ,this could give you an accurate account if it is faulty. remember you cannot go from one EL to another one My theory is when the power is on you have a neutral to earth wire short. Try disconnecting all the neutral wires and connect one at a time to find the fault For gods sake dont electricute yourself(I'm a registered electrician) Good luck

Low water pressure
Check for a hissing noise from the pump and make sure the pipe from the tank is bigger than the pipe going out of the pump(this is cavatation and will damage the impeller) I hope this helps

Inverter AC output
Yes 230volt is the standard for South Africa

Above ground Borehole coming on every 5 mins or so when no water is running.
The built in non return valve could be faulty ,the water is just going back into the tank. Check if the pipes from the tank to the booster pump are bigger than the pipe after the pump ,this could be causing cavitation (this would be heard as a hissing noise) good luck

I think the pump is damaged. Pull it up and see if the cable is damaged. You could be overworking the pump (blocked pipes)or wet end (pump part) damaged good luck

Evacuated Tube retrofit system 150l geyser
I think getting a length of 80mm LDPE irrigation pipe and cutting it length ways and just putting it around the tubes is a better idea

Installation Horror Story - PLEASE VERIFY THAT YOUR INSTALLER IS LEGIT
I meet dodgy electrician's all the time. I was told of an installer today that issued a COC with a different installers signiture on it. The COC was yellow paper ,if I'm not mistaken all COC's are now a white form. As a registerd electrician I have a card issued to me by the Department of Labour ,ask your electrician for his card before he or she starts the work.

CBI SPD - Does it need replacing?
According to SANS 10142 it needs to be replaced . Be careful your insurance company wont pay you out if the SPD's arent working.

Run TV from generator?
McGuywer Generators produce a pure sine wave just by design . An AVR is good because it stops the voltage from going to high.
