1st Fix electrics

The arrival of the solar panels and our electrical connection spurred (get it!) on the start of the electrics.

UKPower networks dug a very neat line to lay our cable in the road (over looked by the Marcie foreman. She ensured it was filled in nicely!



'Taddah' - We have electric! We are no longer reliant on our very kind new neighbours for their outdoor electrical socket.

















After desperately getting our 14 solar panels are installed in time for the FIT tariff until.........circumstances proved otherwise. The electric suppliers are happy to take our generated electricity, but wouldn't accept our predicted SAP energy rating. So therefore, we have to have our completed EPC energy certificate which won't be until the house is completed and the good tariff is long gone. Boo. But hey, it'll just take a bit longer for the payback, but we'll still generate our own electricity. Wahoo!



Electricians need to be slender! Mick doing a fab job routing our cables.

Mick proving we can get in-between the joists on the curved section!

PHEW! He does still have 2 legs.
