If you have any questions about Plug-In Solar Kits, and how they work, you can visit our extensive FAQs Page
 

Are Plug-In Solar kits easy to install?
Installing a Plug-In Solar kit is a simple Plug and Play assembly.  You can install ALL the kit until the final connection (this will need to be performed by an electrician who will need to install a circuit breaker on a dedicated circuit [1])
 
You can install your Plug-In Solar kit in the GARDEN, on the PATIOSHEDPERGOLAWORKSHOPGARAGESTABLE, SUMMER HOUSE, OFFICE or HOUSE roof. Anywhere with a mains grid connection. It’s up to you. You must abide by all the relevant regulations as set out in the Important Information section of this page, and consult a professional in the appropriate field if you are in doubt about any aspect of the installation.
 
The Plug-In Solar Advantage?
With standard Solar PV kits, electricity generation is dependent on the panel that is performing the worst.  These types of systems will will not perform well with panels that are oriented in multiple directions or if panel shading is an issue.
Our Plug-In Solar Kits use Micro-Inverters to take full advantage of the production capability of each individual solar panel, regardless of shade or orientation to the sun. This ensures each panel can produce the maximum power and is not affected by the performance of any other panel in the array. You can find out more about the Enphase System and its benefits here: Enphase Benefits Video.
Battery Storage
The Plug-In Solar System is flexible, and modular so you can design a kit to fit your current budget and energy needs, and expand it later as you wish. The system is completely modular, meaning if you want to add more panels, or a solar battery, this can be simply achieved.
Plug-In Solar Kits are also Energy Storage Ready, meaning a battery system can easily be added to our kits using the Enphase IQ Battery 5P – 5kWh Battery Module.

The Plug-In Solar Advantage

Plug-In Solar System Monitoring
Plug In Solar Kits use the Enphase Enlighten Monitoring Platform, which offers FREE, per panel monitoring via a Web Browser or the Enphase App.  This gives you the assurance that your Plug In Solar Kit is performing as expected. With the Enphase Enlighten System you can easily verify system health and performance by the click of a button.  You can find out more about the Enphase Enlighten Platform and its benefits here: Enphase Enlighten Demo Video.

Important Information


PLEASE BE AWARE OF OTHER COMPANIES SELLING ‘PLUG IN SOLAR’ KITS, WITH THE FINAL CONNECTION BEING MADE BY PLUG AND SOCKET.  THIS IS AGAINST THE UK’S IET REGULATIONS AND IS POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS FOR USE IN THE HOME IN THIS MANNER.  WE ENSURE OUR KITS USE G98 CERTIFIED PRODUCTS AND ABIDE BY ALL UK REGULATIONS.


*Free UK Delivery excludes Isle of Man, Channel Islands, Isle of Wight, Isles of Scilly, Northern Ireland, and the Scottish Highlands. Please ask for a quotation for delivery to these areas. For orders that require a delivery vehicle smaller than an HGV, additional delivery charges will apply. Please ask us for a quotation.  

**The 25 Year Warranty applies to the Solar Panels and the Enphase Micro-Inverter system.  The Mounting System is covered by a 12 year warranty only.

All systems advertised are for the peak power of the Solar Panels. The Micro-Inverter that has been teamed with the panels is done so using the DC:AC ratio module matching method as advised by Enphase, for best performance in the UK. You can see more information on this here: Enphase Module Matching

In the UK solar panels rarely produce power at the rated output due to sun angle, time of year, as well as environmental, electrical, cabling, soiling and thermal losses (around 15% in total). As such our kits have been designed with a moderate DC:AC ratio so the system will produce energy earlier in the day, later into the evenings, and perform better on cloudy days. This means more energy is produced at these times, which is beneficial in the UK climate.

[1] All electrical work must comply with The IET Code of Practice for Grid Connected Solar Photovoltaic Systems, and the 18th Edition of the IET Wiring Regulations.

[2] Installers must ensure that the property’s electricity supply is suitable for the connection of the additional demand and generation of the system being installed.
