& New Installs
We are hearing from more and more solar system owners that their Aerosharp solar inverter is showing 'grid volt error' on the screen. What does this mean? 'Grid volt error' actually means that there is an issue with the voltage from the grid ie SA Power Networks....
We constantly get calls from solar system owners, who think their solar is not performing as it should, but really have no idea whether it is working properly or not. A lot of people ignore their solar until they get a bill, when they are either happy with the result,...
I'm sure you've heard that shade is bad for solar panels, and obviously they need sun to perform. But why exactly is shade that bad? There are actually 2 types of shade you can get, solid shade, like a wall or a chimney, or soft shade, like a tree and the shade from...
Do you have a Samil or SolarRiver inverter? Think it's not working? If you think you are having issues, start by checking the messages on the screen. This will give you an idea of what the problem may be. You may be able to fix something yourself. If you need to...
Do you have one of the old Fronius IG solar inverters, the larger ones IG40 and IG60? You may get the error code STATE 516 coming up on it. If you do, this means "One power stack exceeds the permitted limit of error messages per day (>50x)". Great, I hear you...

Do you have a problem with pigeons or rodents getting under your solar panels? Are they making a nest, and a lot of mess? Not only can this be very noisy, smelly and messy, it isn't good for the panels either. We have also seen wiring under panels destroyed by...
If you have a Powerone or Aurora solar inverter with the error E031, you are not alone! This seems to be the most common error on these inverters. According to the manual, this is an internal error, and it is terminal, your inverter will not recover from this. ABB...
We are hearing from more and more people who have a solar inverter on their house that isn't working. When they are looking at the inverter the screen is blank, and none of the lights are on. Call us now on 1300 130 546 This is not very helpful, as there are no error...
We are hearing from more and more people who have a Macsolar inverter, and it doesn't appear to be working. The hardest thing to tell with a Macsolar is if it is faulty or not. Some error codes mean there is a problem with your solar on your roof, or your grid....
