1 Vision worked with CMBE to install a 13.2KWP solar array comprising of 51 Bisol 260W panels which are situated over 85 sqm of roof. Our dedicted team of MCS credited solar installers worked to get this job done within a 5 day timeframe.

For this system we used a ballasted non-penetrating mounting system from Van Der Valk, Valk is a specialist solar mounting system which is at a slope of 10° this allows for the panels to maximise their generation by using their maximum efficiency. This system was installed onto a flat roof using a specialist prefered non-penetrated mounting system which has a slope of 10°, This sysem has the slope to allow for a better angle for the solar panels to maximise their exposure to the sunlight. 

This solar system uses SolarEdge technologies, SolarEdge is generally a more stable system than a solis system because it uses power optimisers to, as it says, optimise the panels. On a normal solis system if one panel shuts down the whole system stops causing ut to stop generating, With a SolarEdge systems if one panel shuts off the P300 optimisers used on this system creates a bridge to link the surrounding panels together, this also optimises the panels to make sure that the system continues to generate. The optimiser speaks to the inverter which will then send an alert back to the generation meter alerting the user of the broken panel who will then get in touch with us about a repair and maintanence contract.
