- Modern RCD protection in your fuse box. An electrician can fit the socket or check the fuse box if you need it.
- Renting, leasehold or a managed building? Get written permission from your landlord, freeholder or agent first.

Questions
How much power goes into my home?
Whatever the 460W panel is making at the time. The microinverter allows up to 800W (799VA), so with one 460W panel the panel sets the limit.
How many ballast blocks do I need?
Dense concrete blocks of at least 18kg: 2 where gusts top 40mph, 5 over 60mph and 10 over 80mph. They're not in the box.
Do I have to register it?
Yes, free at myplugin.solar before you first switch on. In the North East the network operator is Northern Powergrid.
Can I order two?
No. The rules allow one plug-in kit per household, so the basket takes one kit.
