  1. Thanks
    Thinus Jacobs got a reaction from Energy-Jason in Rookie starting in solar   
    Hi I need a lot of advice. I am thinking of goiing solar. My daily usage is about 30 kw/h. I am thinking of first installing a 4 - 8 kw inverter wit a small bank of batteries just for load shedding purposes. This part of the installation can be done by an licenced electritian. I then plan to add panels to the installation myself as finances permit, until i reach the optimum number of panels. Let s start with the questions.
    1. I am looking at the 4 kw axpert or the Sinerji the are of similar specs and price any ideas from the old hands
    2. The part of installing the panels can it be done by a lay person?. I am quite nifty with my hands but don' t have much expierience with electicals, safe wiring the odd plug or installing my own alarm and ctv cameras. Is it legal for lay person to do the 48v part of the installation
    rest of my questions i will post as the project develops
    regards
