Inverter Problems? We offer solar panel servicing

We see this issue many times and quite often the Solar PV Inverter will have failed.


If the inverter malfunctions, it can’t convert the DC direct current to an AC alternating current. So, it provides your home with direct current only, which is not usable. To resolve this problem, you will need to speak with Wave Renewables to check the DC and AC side of the inverter.


With our solar panel servicing we can normally Diagnose issues on the phone with some simple checks for you.

 

Malfunctioning Solar FITS feed-in tariff Meter


A rare issue can cause the units not to accrue. Even when your panels perform their function, the solar meter might not read the energy production correctly. Is your solar meter is not working correctly? 


You won’t have the right readings to calculate FITS feed-in tariff payments or know your energy savings, loses could be severe if you have a system registered before 2019.


Atmospheric Dirt and dust build-up


The solar panel stay outside, where it is exposed to all kinds of dirt and dust. Exposure causes the build-up of dirt on the surface of the panel. 

The accumulated dirt blocks the surface of the panel from receiving sunlight. 


Cleaning the Solar panels is recommended if dirt has built up to the levels where the performance has been significantly changed.


Poor workmanship


Is there a mistake or misconnection during the system’s installation, which causes the solar system to malfunction. That’s why as soon as you install the system, your installer should walk you through the workings of your solar. You should see that it’s working before they leave.


Whatever the issue Wave Renewables can help diagnose and resolve the issue quickly.

Inverter failure: The inverter is a critical component of a solar panel system that converts direct current (DC) electricity from the panels into alternating current (AC) electricity that can be used by your home or business. Inverters can fail for a variety of reasons, including overheating, overloading, and age 7-12 years is normal.


Wiring and connection problems: Loose or damaged wiring can cause a variety of problems, including reduced power output, intermittent outages, and even fire.


Faulty solar panels: Solar panels are made up of individual cells that can become damaged or fail over time. This can be caused by a variety of factors, including hail damage, animal droppings, and manufacturing defects. Faulty panels can reduce the overall power output of your solar panel system.


Dirty or shaded panels: Dirt, pollen, leaves, and other debris can accumulate on solar panels, reducing their efficiency. Shading from trees or other objects can also reduce power output dramatically. Optimisers on your solar panels can reduce this problem.


Animal damage: Animals, such as Birds and rodents, can damage solar panels by chewing on wires or nesting under the panels. This can cause a variety of problems, including reduced power output and fire hazards. Wave Renewables Installs Guards around the edge to prevent them getting in to the wiring.


If you are experiencing any problems with your solar panel system, it is important to contact a qualified solar installer or electrician to have the problem diagnosed and repaired.
