D P Electrical Specialists have years of experience as solar panel installers so can advise you on the number of panels, whether your roof is suitable for solar energy and if battery storage could be an option for your household. We can even support customers with applications for schemes such as SEG if selling electricity back to the grid. The first step is to inspect the roof at your property so that we can move forward with the installation.
Can a solar panel installer tell me how many panels I need?
Yes we can. Once the team has analysed your household electricity bill, we can calculate the energy usage which helps identify how many solar panels are needed. The next step is to calculate the roof area where solar panels are going to be mounted. Ideally a south facing roof will be able to capture the most amount of sunlight so that electricity generation is efficient. As your local solar panel installer in Leeds, we recently worked on a project on Stanks Parade. The three bedroom house was a typical size semi detached property with limited roof pitch wasn't the best to work with. We managed to install 8 panels on the property which met the household energy usage.
What skills does a solar panel installer need?
The first thing a solar panel installer needs to demonstrate is electrical expertise. Installation involves working with DC from the panels and making sure an AC current is supplied to the property via an inverter. The inverter itself needs to be installed according to strict guidelines in a well ventilated area like a utility or garage. Preventing injury through electrocution is paramount so another major task is making sure there is adequate earthing and protection against electrical surges. As NAPIT approved electricians, you can rest assured that they are competent and comply with regulations.
