Wholesale Solar PV Equipment Suppliers

Fronius Primo Inverter

Solar PV Component Distributors

What do we offer? - Why buy from us?:

We offer clients a unique combination of:

  • Quick, reliable, tracked deliveries: We know the importance of accurate scheduling and the reliable, predictable delivery of equipment. We use this ordering system ourselves because we need to know exactly where our client's equipment is at all times. When you buy from us there is no confusion as to where a piece of equipment is or when it is due to arrive.
  • Stock confirmation, delivery times and all charges are confirmed up front You will know before placing an order if we have the equipment available, when your equipment will be delivered and how much the end invoice total will be before you place the order.
  • Exceptional support: Our on-site and hands on experience with these products and manufacturers puts our clients at a real advantage in terms of system design, commissioning and ongoing technical support. Everything we sell, we also know how to install and service, so technical support is included, provided by the same people and to the same standard as we offer our own clients and site engineers.
  • Product knowledge We know all of the equipment that we sell really well and also have a good idea as to what solar equipment has been installed i the UK. Calling us could save a huge amount of research time, contact us and let us know what you need to know or the information you would like to see, we will likely have it to hand if your enquiry relates to a product that we sell or service, we will likely have more of a clue than most (solar related anyway) about anything else.
  • Specialist equipment from a specialist supplier: We work closely with proven and long established manufacturers and distributors. In addition to reliable supplies and warranty support for our clients this also gives us early access to new products and specialist solar engineering assistance for bespoke systems and builds. Day to day these relationships make manufacturer warranty extensions, additions and ongoing support a piece of cake, Why? Because when you buy from us all of this is arranged and included.
  • Market knowledge: Looking for something different or unusual? The chances are good that we will understand what you would like to do and will be able to provide a cost effective solution, delivered right to the door.

Ground Faults, Isolation (ISO) Faults, RISO Low Faults and Insulation Resistance Faults with Solar PV Systems

After a number of years exposed to wind, rain, snow, ice and sometimes animals; solar panel systems can start to develop faults. The most common faults we find related to exposure are ground faults, isolation (ISO) faults, RISO low faults and insulation resistance faults. In this article we take a look at what these faults are, the possible causes and what steps are taken to identify and resolve them.

Solar Inverter Fault Codes, Warnings and Troubleshooting

Solar inverters can stop working due to the presence of any number of faults. These could be faults within the solar inverter itself or as a result of the solar inverter safely shutting itself down after identifying a discrepancy elsewhere in the system such as from the solar panels, the mains or in the integrity of the wiring.

Free Solar PV Calculators

A list of free solar PV calculators, solar design tools and software, Use to calculate solar yields and the Return on Investment (ROI) for solar PV systems.

Preparing for a Solar Panel Installation

As with any construction project the success and efficiency of a solar PV panel installation comes down to good planning. Some advice for potential system owners preparing for a new solar panel installation.

How to provide backup power to a house using a portable generator

In this article we show you how to provide backup power to your home using a portable diesel, petrol or LPG backup generator. We look at changeover switches, the importance of earthing, backup generator loadings, how to isolate non essential loads. We ask where to locate the backup generator when it's in operation, how best to safely isolate the grid/mains power supply and switch to a backup generator supply.
