How was your week? Ours was awesome - thanks for asking ๐Ÿ˜†

๐Ÿ‘‰ In Karana Downs, we gave a newly purchased solar system a thorough clean, ensuring peak performance.

Over in Jindalee, we handled a system removal, preparing for a full replacement under insurance, taking the stress out of the process for our clients.

At Toowong, we replaced a Sun Grow inverter under warranty, getting our customer's solar back online quickly.

A Solar Health Check in Wishart revealed a potential hazard, and we acted swiftly to make the system safe and efficient.

In Wynnum, we completed an array installation, working seamlessly after roofing repairs.

Springfield Lakes kept us busy, with a hot water system component failure resolved, and essential split system conditioning maintenance completed.

From solar to hot water and air conditioning, DRC Electrical is ready for any electrical challenge!

Weโ€™ve had a few calls regarding turning the solar off as TC Alfred gets closer.

Rooftop solar systems are very robust and can handle all sorts of weather thrown at them, but not large trees and branches!

If you experience cyclonic winds with debris flying about, please turn your system off via the shutdown procedure outlined, AC isolator or solar supply main switch first, then the DC isolator at the inverter second.

Once the storm has passed, return the system via the DC isolator first, then the AC isolator or solar supply main switch second.

Got rooftop solar? Todayโ€™s the time to turn off it off before Alfred hits.

Every system will have slightly different steps, so consult your manual or the installerโ€™s shutdown procedures, which can usually be found at the inverter and/or on the main switchboard. However, as a guide, most will advise to turn off the inverter AC mains isolator, which is usually found in the meter box: itโ€™s very important to turn the AC mains isolator off first, and then also to turn off the photovoltaic (PV) array DC isolator which is usually found next to the inverter.

โš ๏ธ Even if the network is not operational and panels aren't supplying the home, solar systems can continue to generate direct current (DC) power

โšกNEVER climb onto the roof to check or touch the solar system or its components โ€“ if thereโ€™s any damage, the roof can be live

๐Ÿ”ŒTreat all solar panels and cables as though theyโ€™re live and dangerous

๐Ÿ’ฆ Never touch inverters, switchboards or other electrical equipment if itโ€™s wet, or if youโ€™re standing in water
