These PV panels were installed on my roof in Nov 2011 & have produced power, continually until Apr 2026, when the were removed to allow a larger PV system install. Total power produced on removal in Apr 2026 was in excees of 52,000 kWh (see generation meter photo).

The product kit is a set of 16 used 245W REC245PE solar PV panels. These panels are from the brand REC and are designed as solar panels for home and garden applications. They are DC current panels with a grid-tie system configuration, making them suitable for connecting to the electrical grid. They are corrosion-resistant, ensuring durability and long-lasting performance. Perfect for those looking to harness alternative energy supplies and reduce their carbon footprint.

There are 6No. aluminium panel mounting rails approx 6m long rail with associated roof mounting brackets that were used to secure the PV panels to the roof rafters.

There is also a working SunnyBoy 3.8kW string inverter but needs replacement of damaged inverter panel fixing DC connectors & DC cable connectors - 2 +ve male cable connectors, 2 -ve female cable connectors & 2 -ve male panel connectors.

Photos 3 & 4 are the same PV panel after cleaning; the other 15 PV panels are in a similar condition, none of the 16 panels have any damage but it may be prudent to change the PV panel MC4 connectors.
