He really needs to look at the PVGIS website, get a good idea of what generation their incompetence has cost him and submit a claim for the FIT payments that he's missed.
We have nearly identical systems, he checks my readings with his every day, he`s lost out on maybe a few pounds at the most over the last few weeks or so. Even when there`s not been heavy rain he doesn`t seem to start generating til usually half an hour after me.3.975 kWp System, South facing, 21 degree pitch, 15 x Canadian Solar Elps, Samil Inverter, location NE Scotland (Fraserburgh) Bring on the Sun :beer:0 -
It's a very odd sort of moisture related fault if it cures itself the instant the rain eases off ! What I would expect to happen is moisture in the joints causing an 'earth leak trip' when the system would stay disconnected until the circuit breaker had been reset manually - which in turn wouldn't usually be possible until the joint had dried out completely (which might take several hours unless item disconnected, wiped dry & refitted).We have nearly identical systems, he checks my readings with his every day, he`s lost out on maybe a few pounds at the most over the last few weeks or so.

I now have some sympathy (but not a lot) with the electrician trying to diagnose the fault. Has he changed the isolator ? That would seem an obvious thing to do in response to a fault code saying isolation fault and a lot cheaper, quicker and easier than changing the inverterNE Derbyshire.4kWp S Facing 17.5deg slope (dormer roof).24kWh of Pylontech batteries with Lux controller BEV : Hyundai Ioniq50 -
