Building Regulations In addition to planning permission, solar panel installations must comply with building regulations. These regulations ensure that installations are safe, energy-efficient, and environmentally friendly. Compliance with these standards is essential for both safety and performance.
Your solar panel system must comply with building regulations in terms of structural integrity, electrical safety and fire safety. These regulations may vary depending on the size and type of the installation. It's advisable to work with accredited installers who are familiar with these requirements.
To clarify, what is certain is that nearly all domestic electrical work is notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations (see below) and a solar PV installation is nearly always notifiable electrical work.
A solar PV installation can be classed as 'permitted development' subject to conditions and when not located within a conservation area, AONB or world heritage site. After a number of years exposed to wind, rain, snow, ice and sometimes animals; solar panel systems can start to develop faults.
Whether you’re installing on a residential roof or a larger property, let’s take a look at some of the regulations for installing solar panels in the UK. Arguably, the most important regulations for those looking to install solar panels on their property are those that consider the placement or positioning of the solar panels.
A year later, the Climate Change and Sustainable Energy Act 2006 brought microgeneration systems like solar panels under the umbrella of the Building Regulations. You should receive a building regulations certificate, known as a completion certificate, for your solar panel system.
