    Absolutely essential
    the blue certificate which you will need to register for FITs.
    invoice / receipt including name & address (you may need proof of ownership to register for FITs)
    Electrical safety certificate (otherwise you will need to get the council to certify compliance with Part P building regs - £££s)
    receipt for any extra warranties

    Others to consider:
    circuit diagram
    inverter manual
    warranty documentation
    panel serial numbers and location plan
    product technical specifications / literature (model numbers, dimensions, electrical features etc) for all parts including mounting system
