💡 Planning an LED Lighting Upgrade? Here’s What You Should Be Asking Your Electrician 👇

LED lighting can transform your home or business — but not all installations are created equal. Before you go ahead, here are 4 crucial checks to make when instructing an electrician:

🔎 1. Quality of Fittings
Cheap LED fittings often fail early, flicker, or discolour over time. Make sure your electrician uses reliable, branded fittings that meet UK safety and efficiency standards.

🛡 2. Warranty Period
Ask how long the products are covered. Quality LED fittings should come with a minimum 3-5 year warranty. A shorter warranty can be a red flag for poor build quality.

🏷 3. Supplier Guarantee
Is your electrician buying from a reputable wholesaler or just the cheapest online source? At Big Green Electrical, we only work with trusted suppliers who honour their guarantees, giving you peace of mind.

👷‍♂️ 4. Professional Installation
Even the best LED lights won’t perform if they’re badly installed. Choose a qualified electrician who knows how to avoid common issues like overloading circuits, poor switching, or improper dimming compatibility.

✨ Done right, LED lighting is efficient, long-lasting, and beautiful — but shortcuts cost more in the long run.

🔧 Solar Transformation in Farnham ☀️

This stunning roof makeover in Farnham features 16 x Solfit 425W in-roof solar panels, seamlessly integrated into the new roof structure for a sleek, watertight finish. Before installation, the roof was stripped back, fitted with a breathable membrane, and carefully battened to ensure a perfectly level surface – essential for the in-roof system to lock together and protect against the elements.

⚡ We chose Enphase IQ8 Microinverters for this project – each panel has its own microinverter, converting DC to AC right at the source. That means no high-voltage DC on the roof, making it the safest and most efficient setup for an in-roof system.

🔋 To top it off, we installed a GivEnergy All-In-One 13.5kWh battery with an AC coupled inverter. This clever system stores excess solar energy after prioritising home usage, giving the homeowners greater control over their energy independence.

🏡 With the homeowners often away, we integrated systems that partner with Octopus Energy, allowing the control of the system to be handed over remotely – maximising return on investment even when the home is empty.

💚 Smart. Safe. Sustainable. That’s the Big Green way.

🚨 When Solar Installers Cut Corners, the Homeowner Loses

We were recently called to help a homeowner whose solar installation had been carried out by another contractor. Unfortunately, the installer was not MCS-registered, had provided no documentation, and had left behind multiple compliance issues.

We corrected what we could. But because we weren’t the original installer, we can’t issue the required documentation—which means the homeowner can’t obtain an export MPAN and is now unable to claim SEG payments for selling energy back to the grid.

This situation is avoidable.

❗ Here’s what you should always ask your solar provider for:

✅ A valid MCS certificate
✅ Proof of G98 or G99 DNO notification and acceptance
✅ A copy of your export MPAN
✅ A single-line schematic and commissioning paperwork
✅ Evidence of certification (NICEIC, Napit, or equivalent)

💡 Without this, you may be left with working solar panels—but no way to benefit from them financially.
🛠️ Before you commit to any installer, make sure they’re listed on the official MCS register:

Don’t get caught out by cheap quotes and missing paperwork—doing your homework up front can save you thousands later.

We visited a new build last week – modern, solar panels installed, everything looking right on the surface.

But inside the consumer unit, the solar circuit was connected to the same RCD as the general household circuits.

It’s a simple mistake, but one we’re seeing too often – even in new properties.

🔌 **Why is this a big deal?**
When solar is on a shared RCD:

* It can cause nuisance tripping, especially in damp weather – knocking out power to your whole house unexpectedly.
* It makes fault isolation difficult – one issue with the solar system can cut power to your essentials.
* It often doesn’t comply with BS 7671 and other key regulations like ENA G99.
* And solar inverters? They sometimes need special RCD types – not your standard household one.

For something as important as your home’s power, this isn’t a corner worth cutting.

✅ The right way: a dedicated RCD or RCBO for the solar circuit – keeping your home safe, compliant, and powered properly.

Solar circuits should be protected by their own dedicated RCD or RCBO – it’s safer, more reliable, and regulation-compliant.

Another smart solar install complete in Farnham!

We recently fitted 16 in-roof Solfit 425W solar panels on this stunning home, working alongside the roofers to ensure a perfect level finish. The panels interlock to form a watertight, sleek look that sits flush with the roof tiles.

☀️ Powered by Enphase IQ8 microinverters, the system is safer, more efficient, and eliminates high-voltage DC cabling.
🔋 We also installed a GivEnergy All-in-One 13.5kWh battery to store unused energy—perfect for homeowners who travel often.
📱 With full integration to Octopus Energy, the system can be remotely optimised when the property’s empty.

Clever design. Seamless installation. Long-term savings.
