Being the solar thread…
For a dedicated, compliant residential enclosure to house a solar charge controller and changeover switch, do I need the “NSW standard” 600x600x250 box? In cavity brickwork is HD conduit required for lead-ins? Or is the brick cavity itself considered sufficient for internal wiring? |

We use a standard generator changeover switch, pole 1 up, center off, pole two down. Brick cavity should be fine if it is weather sealed...IMHO I used an electrician even though it's a no brainer to install, suggest you do the same.

I will use a sparky for the actual wiring (I’ve been warning him, the longer he avoids me the bigger the job gets

I haven’t spec’d anything yet.
It’s a slightly arbitrary number but the long game is to take power completely off-grid in a 75 year old suburban house, including a sizeable air-con (or as people say in Tasmania, heat pump). I want to be done in the roof before summer; all services plus insulation. |
