Questions before you get quotes
Do they use subcontractors for solar and battery installations?
No. Their own Newcastle team of licensed electricians carries out the work, and they do not subcontract installations.
Can I monitor their solar and battery system from my phone?
Yes. Every system they install includes monitoring so generation, storage and usage can be viewed in real time.
How long does a residential solar and battery installation take?
Most residential solar and battery installations are completed in one day, although switchboard or meter work can make the job take two days. The timeline is confirmed in the quote.
Can they add a battery to existing solar panels?
It may be possible. They review the existing inverter, solar array, switchboard and metering before confirming whether an AC- or DC-coupled battery design is suitable.
Will they check whether my switchboard needs upgrading?
Yes. They assess the switchboard during the site visit and include any required upgrade in the quote up front rather than adding it during the installation.
Do they handle the solar grid connection paperwork?
Yes. They handle the Ausgrid connection application, export-limit discussion and metering change for customers in Newcastle.
