What happens on the day
Our visits are booked in advance and structured to ensure the electrical installation is carried out safely with minimal disruption to your daily power supply.
- Preparation and cable pathwaysWe assess the position for the battery bank and inverter, protect surrounding surfaces, and confirm the neatest cable pathway between the unit, the isolators and the main distribution board.
- Mounting and dedicated wiringThe battery housing and inverter are secured firmly to the wall or floor. We install a dedicated electrical circuit, rotary isolation switches and correct protective devices before running cables back to your consumer unit.
- System testing and energisationMains power is briefly turned off to connect into the consumer unit. We carry out earth fault loop impedance and insulation resistance checks, energise the unit, configure monitoring controls and confirm smooth system operation.

WhatsAppCan a battery storage system be installed without solar panels?
Yes. Standalone battery systems can be wired into your mains consumer unit without solar panels. The battery charges from the grid overnight during low-cost off-peak electricity hours, then discharges to power your appliances throughout the day.
Where can the battery and inverter be located?
Batteries and inverters are commonly installed in a garage, utility room or ground-floor storage space where adequate ventilation and clearance exist. Certain weatherproof units can also be securely wall-mounted on an exterior wall.
How long does a typical battery installation take?
Most domestic battery installations take between one and two days to complete, depending on the length of cable runs and the position of the consumer unit. Mains power is only interrupted briefly while final connections are made to the distribution board.
Do you notify the electricity network operator?
Yes. MX2 Electrical submits the required G98 or G99 engineering paperwork to Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks after installation, ensuring your battery storage system is fully documented and meets network connection rules.
Will battery storage supply power during a power cut?
Standard battery storage setups disconnect during a power outage as a safety measure to protect grid workers. If backup power is required when the grid goes down, specific emergency power supply components must be integrated into the installation.
