Most problems that occur with inverters are either due to poor quality brands or simply have a technical hitch.

Inverterdoctor.co.uk started as we feel there is a requirement for a good informative independent website for people with solar systems.

Whether it is a faulty solar panel, an electrical fault, or simply the inverter isn't working anymore. It can cause you a financial loss every day because your system isn't working.

There have been a number of solar companies that have gone out of business which can leave you with another problem! It can be a headache especially when the solar system has been sold as a 20 year performing system and now its not performing.

This website will be able to answer all your questions, provide you with as much information to inform you about inverters past and present and the most up to date technology which could solve your problem. We would like to help you understand the Feed in Tariff and even battery storage solutions which are now also available.


First step to get your system up and working again is to simply turn everything off.

Sometimes the inverter may need to reset itself.

Turn it off and leave it for 5 minutes.

A PV system should have 2 isolators. (switches) A red one and a black one. The red is the AC isolator. This isolator is normally found by the inverter, it should been labelled. This is giving power to the inverter from the mains. The black isolator is the DC isolator which brings the current from the solar panels. This will have high voltages coming from the solar panels as long as there is daylight. Again, it should be labelled.

Do NOT open either isolator, simply turn them to the off position

Once all power is off there shouldn't be any power getting to the inverter from the mains or the solar panels. This will allow the inverter to have a rest and potentially reset itself. Don't worry, you won't lose any data on the inverter.

After a few minutes have passed turn the inverter back on and wait to see what happens.
