Discussion guidelines

  • Be kind and assume good faith. People here range from first time homeowners to engineers.
  • Say where you are. Rules and prices depend on your country, state and utility.
  • Share real numbers when you can: system size, production, cost and what you paid for electricity before and after.
  • No sales pitches or affiliate links. Installers are welcome to answer questions, not to advertise.
  • For wiring and safety questions, the answer is almost always to use a licensed electrician.
