## Solar panel installation pricing

We quote solar installations clearly before work begins so you know the full cost in advance.
- Solar panel installation: from £4,500
- Labour and connection costs reflect the complexity of the cable run between the roof array, inverter and consumer unit.
- Required consumer unit upgrades, additional circuit protection or isolation equipment are quoted separately beforehand.

## What happens on the day

We turn up on time, review cable runs through the property before starting, and isolate electrical circuits safely while completing the connections.

### Pre-installation assessment and isolation

We examine the existing consumer unit, confirm the positions for your inverter, generation meter and isolation switches, and safely isolate individual circuits to prepare for new cabling.

### Running cables and mounting hardware

Inverters, safety switches and meters are secured firmly to internal or garage walls. Heavy-duty cabling runs through floor voids or protective conduit down to the distribution board to keep the finish neat.

### Electrical testing and system commissioning

We complete testing across the new circuit, check earth loop impedance and insulation resistance, energise the components and confirm that the inverter displays active solar generation.

## Frequently asked questions


### Do solar panels generate electricity on overcast days in Broadstone?

Photovoltaic panels react to daylight rather than direct heat or intense sunshine. Output is higher on bright summer days, but your array still generates power during cloudier weather.

### Will my consumer unit need changing before connecting solar panels?

The board requires an available way and compatible circuit protection that handles incoming generation. We check your existing fuse board beforehand; if extra protective components or a board upgrade are required, we explain that clearly.

### Who notifies the electricity network about our solar connection?

Standard domestic solar generation connects under Engineering Recommendation G98. Following testing and commissioning, MX2 Electrical completes the required technical paperwork and submits it directly to the distribution network operator.

### Can I add battery storage to the solar system later?

Yes. You can select a hybrid inverter from the start to take a battery in future, or connect an AC-coupled battery unit as a separate addition to the consumer unit at a later date.

### Do domestic rooftop solar panels need planning permission?

Most residential solar panel installations are permitted development provided the panels do not extend significantly above the roof plane. Listed buildings or properties subject to specific local planning rules may require prior confirmation.
