Actually can top up ma. But depend on your system lo. If micro easier. If string, gg

At that time I applied the T&C stated max for residential is 11.7kw only .... but good enough for now ....

Kwac or dc?

Coz if dc, can go higher. If 11.7kwac, then can install 14kwp dc.

Where to see this infor?

Check your seda cert.

I am more afraid if your solar provider didn’t help to apply full quota for your system.

For example, you instal 11kwp panel, they only help to apply 8-9kwac jer.

10 Kwac jer ...

But u can add 2 or 3 more panels.

Usually for 10kwac, some solar supplier supply up to 13 kwp.

Yeah, if we compare the calculation provided by the installer to the actual operating results, there could be a significant difference, considering unforeseen circumstances. For example, you showed the monthly average generation of RM240 * 12 months = RM2880. However, there was a time when the inverter went faulty, and the neighbor had to get the installer to rectify it, costing roughly RM2k per trip. This cost has already offset the 1-year generated revenue, meaning the ROI will extend.

In my opinion, investing in solar still may not be very feasible in Malaysia due to factors such as climate, operating costs, and the less attractive schemes available. One very obvious change is that even TNB has shortened the 20-year NEM contract to 10 years.

My bill is 800 but I install 14kWp for future proofing.

Why would it cost 2k for the faulty inverter when it’s under warranty?

Regarding warranties, please bear in mind that not all warranties cover everything. Panels may come with a 20-year warranty on performance, while inverters may have a 5-year warranty or less, requiring an extra payment during initial installation. It's essential to consider the warranty provided by the installer, typically around 1 year in older days, with charges for subsequent service. When it comes to panel or inverter warranties, carefully read the manufacturer's fine print to understand what's covered. Claiming warranty in Malaysia can be challenging for end users.

I'm quite curious about the experiences of those who installed solar systems in the past 5 years. Could you share any issues faced with panels and inverters? How does the yield after 5 years compare to the first year?

Guys, if someone bought a house that the previous owner had installed some kind of power saving mod, I think it was at the the meter, will the new owner get in trouble when they want to install solar system at the house? They could not see anything wrong with the meter though.

once you bought the house, u inherit the skeleton. it become ur ghost to worried about.

report to TNB first before u change/update the TNB account..

immediately change a new METER with new TNB account

Thanks, will advice the owner to go straight to TNB. I guess he won't have a good time with the previous owner after this.
Just curious, can install without change the meter or TNB will come and check before installation?

1st of all, the meter need to change to the new owner name before you engage the solar company as the solar company will need validate.
once change the name, good to change the meter to prevent any trouble inherit
when install the solar that will be TNB team go over to change the meter or verify before you allow to switch ON the solar panal power.

for good well, you could ask the x-owner to settle it off

hopefully members will have least impact with the ICPT remove if more then 601kw
