Location:
Solar PV
Luton, Bedfordshire • Plain Tile Roof Array
5.58kWp 12x DMEGC All-Black Solar Array + SolaX Hybrid System
STAGE 01
Structural Rafter Fixings
Roof tiles slid up and grade-A2 stainless steel Fastensol brackets lagged directly into structural rafters. Tiles notched with diamond tooling to maintain BS 5534 100% weatherproofing.
STAGE 02
Rails, DC String & Bird Mesh
Heavy-duty black anodized rails aligned across planes. Double-insulated 6mm² DC cables run in conduit, and UV-stabilized anti-pigeon perimeter mesh clamped securely around all panels.
STAGE 03
Completed Array & Telemetry
12x DMEGC 465W all-black modules clamped with calibrated torque wrenches. Live telemetry synced to SolaX Cloud app with G99 network sign-off and handover pack issued.
Battery Storage
Watford & North London • SolaX Triple Power Heated Tower
SolaX X1-Hybrid Inverter & Triple Power Heated Battery System with External Siting
STAGE 01
Distribution Board & MID Meter
Installed a dedicated non-combustible FuseBox metal consumer unit equipped with an Eastron SDM230-2 MID generation meter, 32A bi-directional RCBO, and Type 2 SPD for revenue-grade export tracking.
STAGE 02
Precision Exterior Conduit & Isolators
Fabricated machine-bent heavy-duty black conduit hugging external corners with neat 90-degree saddle sets. Installed lockable IP66 rotary DC and AC isolators complying with BS 7671.
STAGE 03
SolaX Inverter & Heated Battery Tower
Commissioned the wall-mounted SolaX X1-Hybrid inverter coupled to a SolaX Triple Power LFP battery stack with active sub-zero heating mats (-30°C) for all-weather winter charging.
Battery Storage
Bishops Stortford, Hertfordshire CM23 • High-Voltage Storage System
Fox ESS High-Voltage Modular Battery Storage & Hybrid Inverter Integration
STAGE 01
Distribution Board Wiring & SPD Protection
Fitted a dedicated non-combustible steel FuseBox consumer unit with 100A main switch, bi-directional RCBO protection, and Type 2 SPD to protect inverter circuits.
STAGE 02
Hybrid Inverter, MID Meter & AC Isolator
Wall-mounted the Fox ESS Hybrid Inverter with high-level conduit containment, lockable rotary AC emergency isolator, and Emlite MID generation meter.
STAGE 03
High-Voltage Battery Enclosure & Handover
Floor-anchored the high-density Fox ESS lithium battery storage unit, interlocked BMS communication and shielded DC power links, and verified live operation.
EV Charging
Leighton Buzzard, LU7 • Dedicated Sub-Board & SWA Run
Dedicated EV Consumer Unit Sub-Distribution with SWA Brass Gland Termination
STAGE 01
Distribution Board Wiring & SPD Protection
Fitted a dedicated non-combustible steel FuseBox consumer unit with 100A switch, Type A RCBO, and Type 2 SPD, isolating EV loads from household circuits.
STAGE 02
Rotary AC Isolator & SWA Cable Route
Installed a dedicated rotary AC emergency isolator switch with neatly clipped 6mm² Steel Wire Armoured (SWA) cable along the garage structural framework.
STAGE 03
Duracell EV Charger Wall Installation
Mounted the 7.4kW Duracell smart EV charger to exterior clad wall with holster. Conducted full live commissioning, RCD trip tests, and PEN fault testing.
Consumer Unit & Switchgear
Wantage, OX12 • 18th Edition Consumer Unit & SPD Upgrade
18th Edition Amendment 2 RCBO Metal Consumer Unit & Type 2 SPD Upgrade
STAGE 01
Service Intake & Safe Isolation
Conducted safe electrical isolation at the DNO cut-out. Verified earth loop impedance (Ze) and prospective fault current (PFC) across domestic sub-circuits prior to consumer unit changeover.
STAGE 02
18th Edition Metal Board Wiring
Installed a non-combustible steel FuseBox consumer unit with integrated Type 2 Surge Protection Device (SPD), 100A double-pole main switch, and individual bi-directional RCBO protection.
STAGE 03
Testing & Handover
Conducted full dead and live tests using calibrated multi-function testers. Verified RCD trip times, recorded insulation resistance (>200MΩ), and issued official NAPIT Part P Certification.
Ventilation & Extract
Potters Bar • Hertfordshire EN6 • Utility Room Continuous dMEV Fan
High-Humidity Domestic Utility Room Continuous dMEV Ventilation with Precision Facing Brick Core Penetration
STAGE 01
Initial Survey & Route Mapping
Conducted structural pre-installation survey of the utility room wall and external cavity substrate. Mapped precision 100mm diamond core trajectory with dedicated switched fused spur electrical supply routing and zero structural clash.
STAGE 02
Diamond Core Duct & Wall Sleeve
Precision diamond core drilled 100mm circular penetration cleanly through internal plaster and masonry cavity substrate without blow-out or spalling. Prepared internal wall surface, marked chassis mounting template, and fitted low-resistance duct sleeve ready for continuous extract unit mounting.
STAGE 03
Finished Flush Enclosure Handover
Fitted sleek minimalist Pass Safe Eco continuous dMEV extract unit flush to the utility room wall. Connected via clean mini-trunking to dedicated switched fused spur isolator, commissioned whisper-quiet continuous trickle ventilation (<11 dB), calibrated to 8.0 l/s Part F Building Regulations with a UKAS digital vane anemometer, and issued official compliance certification.
