Where it can go

Anywhere level and sunny with a clear run of about 4m: along the back of a lawn, the length of a patio, a gravel strip by the fence. Ground only, so not on walls, roofs or balconies.

Wind is the job of the ballast. The maker's guide for each frame says how much weight it needs, and we'll put that on the listing.

Plug it into a weatherproof outdoor socket within reach of its own cable. Keep it away from walls on a property boundary.

Before you order

Check each of these first. Stuck on one? Ask us.

  • A clear run of about 3.5m to 4m of level ground, 1.2m deep, in the sun.
  • A weatherproof outdoor socket within reach of the kit's own cable. No extension leads, cable reels or adaptors. An electrician can fit one if you need it.
  • Modern RCD protection in your fuse box. Not sure? An electrician can check it.
  • Renting, leasehold or a managed building? Get written permission from your landlord, freeholder or managing agent first.
  • Tell your home insurer before you set it up.
  • Register the kit free at myplugin.solar before you first use it.
  • One kit per household, used as it comes and never with a home battery.
  • England, Scotland or Wales only. Not Northern Ireland, the Isle of Man or the Channel Islands.

Questions

Why do two panels only give 800W?

The microinverter caps what goes into your home at 800W (799VA), the limit for plug-in solar. More panel power helps the kit reach that cap earlier in the morning, later in the evening and on duller days.

What could it save?

With around 890W of panels in a sunny, unshaded spot, a busy household using most of it at home could save around £140 a year at today's price cap rate. See the working.

Will the panels be the same as in the photo?

The photo is illustrative. Each model's listing will have its own photos and the maker's name.
