Balcony Solar Connected to Individual Apartment Sub-board in Strata 'Powering Forward' Kit
Many apartment owners living in strata buildings feel 'locked out' of the solar revolution.
A solar installer can provide a quote on connecting a balcony solar system to your individual apartment sub-board but then what?
This is a 'Powering Forward' kit which an apartment owner in strata can use to help progress through the complexity of dealing with strata. Break through 'red tape', engage the right people, bring the right paperwork, take the burden off other people you rely on for approval and make it easier for them to approve your balcony solar system.
There is a gap between a solar installer quote and dealing with strata managers, strata lawyers (too expensive!) and strata committee members to get balcony solar setup on your private apartment balcony. Note: we only recommend this kit to people who have their private apartment sub-board located inside their private lot such as above the kitchen in a cupboard. i.e. not in an electrical cabinet outside your apartment in the lift lobby or in the main switchroom.
The Powering Forward kit covers:
* Understanding the units of measurement
* What type of circuit breakers should I upgrade to in my apartment sub-board
* How to tell if I have a smart meter for my apartment
* 9 steps to consider for an individual lot owner wanting to install balcony solar connected to your private apartment sub-board
* How to pass a sustainability infrastructure resolution
* DRAFT Application form to my strata committee (who don't have an application form for this yet) for their approval
* Sample motions for an AGM or EGM
* Sample by-law for an AGM or EGM
* Additional Resources
