Case Study — Hannington, Hampshire
Solar Panel Removal and Reinstallation in Hannington, Hampshire
Project Overview
A homeowner in Hannington required their solar PV system to be professionally removed to allow essential roofing works to be completed. Once the roof replacement was finished, the system needed to be safely reinstalled, tested and recommissioned.
The customer wanted an experienced solar contractor who could protect the existing equipment and ensure the system was returned to full working order following the roofing works.
The Challenge
Removing and reinstating a solar PV system involves much more than simply lifting panels from the roof. Every component must be carefully documented, disconnected, stored and reinstalled correctly to maintain system performance and manufacturer compliance.
The installation included:
- •Solar PV panels
- •Roof mounting system
- •SolarEdge optimisers
- •DC cabling and connections
- •SolarEdge inverter equipment
Our Solution
Omni3 completed the project in three stages:
Stage 1 — System Removal
- •Safe electrical isolation of the solar PV system
- •Removal of all solar panels
- •Removal of mounting rails and roof fixings
- •Protection and storage of system components
- •Preparation of the roof for the roofing contractor
Stage 2 — Reinstallation
Once the roofing works were complete, we returned to site to:
- •Reinstall the mounting system
- •Refit all solar panels
- •Reconnect SolarEdge optimisers
- •Test all DC cabling and connections
- •Verify inverter operation
- •Recommission the solar PV system
Stage 3 — Testing and Commissioning
A full inspection and testing regime was carried out to confirm:
- ✓Correct optimiser operation
- ✓Correct string voltage
- ✓Safe electrical performance
- ✓Successful inverter communication
- ✓Restored energy generation
Results
The solar PV system was successfully reinstated and recommissioned following the roof replacement project.
