If you have noticed your solar panel system is not
delivering the energy it was supposed to, you are not alone.
According to government data, more than half of Australia’s
residential solar systems perform below the standard they’re supposed to.
And even worse, about 14% of the country’s solar systems
develop a major fault every year and stop working altogether.
Most of these faults go undetected until home owners receive
an electricity bill spike. Literally, every day that ticks by undetected costs
the home owner money.

Inverter faults and
errors
Inverter faults account for almost 50% of major solar system
failures. Typically when an inverter fails, the whole system shuts down and
produces zero energy. There are many potential causes of iverter failure, and
these will generally require a qualified solar electrician to rectify the
issue. Fortunately inverters have a 5 to 10 year warranty, so you should be
able to get these faults fixed for free under warranty.
