There are companies that assist with SSEG registration. As part of that they will inspect an installation and check it against the appropriate national standards. So call in one of those companies on this basis: If the system is up to scratch then you pay for the inspection. If it's not then he pays and he undertakes to bring the system up to scratch within a reasonable period of time and his expense.Allow for the possibility that he might have been badly served by whoever installed the system.

April 28, 20251 yr That doesn’t look compliant. Issues like exposed GP cables and missing junction boxes are clear violations of basic safety standards. According to the Solar Panel Maintenance Checklist, such problems must be addressed promptly. Get a certified installer to inspect the system and confirm if it meets national regulations.
