Compare Solar Installers OlympusWhat Installers Should Plan For in Olympus
- HOA approval. Security estates in Olympus usually need the HOA or aesthetics committee to approve the panel layout first. Build that time into the plan.
- Newer builds. Newer homes in Olympus usually have modern DB boards and roofs with fewer obstructions, which keeps installation simple.
- Sectional title. Flats and townhouses in Olympus need body corporate approval and often have limited roof space. A battery backup system is a common starting point.
- Summer storms. Afternoon thunderstorms from October to March cut output on stormy days in Olympus. Size the battery so a cloudy afternoon does not leave you short.
Registering a Solar System in Olympus
Properties in Olympus are supplied by the City of Tshwane in most cases. Tshwane requires solar and installed battery systems to be approved as embedded generation before they are connected, even if you never export.
- Application first. Your installer applies to Tshwane's electricity department with a single-line diagram showing the point of connection. Queries go to sseg@tshwane.gov.za.
- Approved inverter. Third-party NRS 097-2-1 certification for the exact inverter model.
- Export. Only with approval and a bidirectional meter. Tshwane reviews its tariffs every July.
- Eskom supply. If your bill comes from Eskom, register with Eskom instead. See SSEG registration.
