Solar Repairs

At UEG we maintain, trouble shoot all aspect of Solar + Battery storage system. We will turn up onsite to discusses the issue of your system. 

 We will do visual and basic testing to identify the issue. We will discuss the solutions and once agreed we will conduct repairs or replacement of the component. We carryout below inspection on component involved in a typical solar system.

Inverter Issues: The inverter is an essential component of a solar power system that converts the DC electricity generated by the solar panels into AC electricity for use in your home or to be fed back into the grid. Inverters can occasionally fail or malfunction. In such cases, the inverter may need to be repaired or replaced.

Panel Damage: Solar panels are typically built to withstand harsh weather conditions, but they can still be damaged by severe hailstorms, falling debris, or other accidents. Cracked or broken panels can impact the overall performance of the system. Damaged panels should be assessed by a professional to determine if repair or replacement is necessary.

Wiring and Connection Problems: Electrical connections between solar panels, inverters, and the electrical grid can develop issues over time. Loose or corroded connections may result in reduced system efficiency or even complete system shutdown. It’s important to use a qualified technician inspect and repair any faulty wiring or connections.

Monitoring and Control Systems: Solar power systems often include monitoring and control systems that provide real-time data on energy production and system performance. If these systems encounter problems, they may need to be repaired or recalibrated to ensure accurate monitoring and control.

We can offer routine maintenance while not a repair, a routine maintenance can help prevent potential issues with your solar power system. This includes regular cleaning of solar panels to remove dirt, debris, and bird droppings that can reduce efficiency. Additionally, maintaining clear access to the panels and ensuring proper ventilation around the system’s components is important.

Panel removal and disposal

Is your solar system has met end of its lifetime? Do you want to remove it responsibly & safely? We are here to help. At UNITED ENERGY GROUP this is exactly what we offer, Solar panel system removal and disposal.

Solar panel removal should be done carefully and responsibly to minimize environmental impact.

UEG can consult you professionally. We have licensed solar panel installer team or a specialized solar panel removal company to handle the removal process. They have the necessary experience and knowledge to safely uninstall and dispose of the panels.

Before removing the solar panels, we follow proper shut down procedure to confirm the electrical system is properly disconnected. This involves shutting off the system at the main circuit breaker and ensuring that no electricity is flowing through the panels.

The removal process may vary depending on the installation method. Generally, the panels are detached from their mounting structure by removing the bolts or clamps that hold them in place. The panels should be handled carefully to avoid any damage during the removal process.

Once the panels are removed, they should we carefully transport to a safe location for storage until we have quantity for recycling or disposing it.

So why worry? Let us handle the hard work and take care of the entire process. Call or make enquiry online and one of professional consultant will get in touch to discuss it further.

Emergency Breakdowns

UEG provides electrical emergency services to all residential and commercial premises. We will conduct visual, meter testing, isolation, and energisation of site power.

Fault can happen at any time for any of the below reason.

Overloading: When electrical systems are subjected to a higher load than they can handle, it can lead to overheating, tripped circuit breakers, or blown fuses, resulting in a breakdown.

Short circuits: A short circuit occurs when there is an unintended connection between two conductors, causing an excessive flow of current. This can lead to overheating, sparks, or electrical fires, resulting in equipment failure or power outages.

Faulty wiring: Poorly installed or aging wiring can deteriorate over time, leading to electrical breakdowns. Loose connections, frayed wires, or damaged insulation can cause power interruptions, electrical shocks, or even fires.

Power surges: Sudden increases in voltage, such as lightning strikes or utility grid fluctuations, can cause power surges. These surges can damage sensitive electronic devices, leading to breakdowns or complete failure.

Equipment failures: Electrical equipment, such as transformers, motors, or circuit breakers, can fail due to mechanical issues, overheating, or manufacturing defects. This can result in power disruptions or equipment breakdowns.

Environmental factors: Extreme weather conditions like storms, floods, or high winds can damage power lines, electrical infrastructure, or equipment, leading to electrical breakdowns.

Human error: Incorrect installation, improper maintenance, or misuse of electrical equipment can contribute to breakdowns. For instance, accidental contact with live wires, incorrect wiring connections, or inadequate grounding can lead to failures.

UEG will follow electrical safety guidelines, perform regular inspections and maintenance of electrical systems, and ensure proper installation by qualified professionals. Additionally, using surge protectors, circuit breakers, and other protective devices can help minimise the risks of electrical breakdowns.
