Solar PV Friendly Home Insurance

Oddly, altering the building cost for me (to something lower) actually increased my insurance quote. Leaving it at the default £400K or £500K gave me a better quote.

When you consider solar panel cover remember that there are two problems:
1. If a panel blows off and hits someone or they get electrocuted from the wiring.
2. Damage to the panels themselves, including from vandals.

Two problems?

3. Damage the solar panels and associated equipment cause to the house or third party tangible property (cause could be physical or electrical).

4. Theft of solar panels or associated equipment (or possibly energy)

5. Loss of use of the panels, e.g. loss of FIT payment.
