We assess your installation and provide clear written costs before any work starts. - Battery storage installation: from £2,500 - Commercial battery storage installation: from £18,000 - The overall price depends on the storage capacity of the battery bank and whether single-phase or three-phase equipment is required. - Longer cable runs between your consumer unit and the battery location require additional materials and installation time. - Existing consumer units that require updated protective devices or board replacement will adjust the final quotation. ## Battery storage installation across Ferndown We serve Ferndown from our base in Poole. - Ferndown town centre - Tricketts Cross - West Parley - BH22 ## What happens on the day We plan the installation around your property layout, keeping electrical interruption brief while the new protective equipment and cabling are connected. ### Mounting the equipment The battery enclosure and inverter are fixed securely in a garage, utility room or external wall location chosen for adequate ventilation and structural support. ### Dedicated circuit wiring Heavy-duty cabling is run from the battery unit and inverter back to your consumer unit through a dedicated rotary isolator and separate protective devices. ### Electrical connections and testing Power is turned off briefly to make the final connections at the consumer unit, followed by insulation resistance and earth fault loop impedance checks across the new circuit. ### System handover and demonstration We configure the operating parameters, verify monitoring connections, walk you through the isolation switches, and leave the working area clean and tidy. ## Frequently asked questions about battery storage ### Can I install battery storage without solar panels? Yes. Battery storage systems can connect directly to your household consumer unit to charge from the mains grid overnight on cheaper off-peak electricity tariffs, then discharge stored power into your home during higher-rate daytime hours. ### Where can the battery system be installed? Batteries are usually positioned in a garage, utility room or sturdy outbuilding with adequate ventilation and wall or floor support. Certain weather-rated battery enclosures can also be mounted on an external building wall. ### How long does a battery storage installation take? Most domestic battery installations take between one and two days, depending on the distance and cable run back to your consumer unit. Mains electricity to the property is turned off for only a short period while making final connections. ### Do you handle the grid connection permissions? Yes. We complete and submit the required G98 or G99 paperwork to Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks, confirming that your energy storage equipment meets network connection regulations. ### Will a battery system keep power on during a power cut? Standard battery storage installations shut down during a grid power cut to prevent feeding power back into the public network. If backup power is needed during a power cut, an emergency power switch must be integrated into the installation. ## Other services in Ferndown - [Electrician in Ferndown](https://mx2-electrical-ltd.co.uk/electrician-ferndown): Domestic, commercial and selected industrial electrical repairs, testing and installation work across Ferndown, West Parley and BH22. - [Battery storage installation (all areas)](https://mx2-electrical-ltd.co.uk/services/battery-storage-installation): Home and commercial battery storage installation in Poole, Bournemouth and Dorset by MX2 Electrical.
