Know the moment
something isn’t right.
Most solar problems go unnoticed for months. Real-time monitoring catches faults before they cost you money — and alerts MiniGrid so we can act before you even know there’s a problem.
Your system could be failing right now. You wouldn’t know.
Most solar faults are silent. They don’t trip a switch or trigger an alarm — they just quietly reduce your output for weeks or months until someone checks.
Silent inverter faults
An inverter can partially fail or throttle output without throwing a visible error. Unless you’re watching the numbers daily, you’ll only catch it on your next electricity bill — if you’re lucky.
Panel degradation
Panels degrade gradually — but some degrade faster than the 0.5% per year specification. Without generation benchmarking, accelerated degradation goes unnoticed for years.
Connection and wiring issues
Loose MC4 connectors, corroded terminals or failed string fuses don’t always cause visible issues — but they cut output from one or more strings of panels silently and persistently.
Bird damage and nesting
Birds nesting under panels cause wiring damage that can take weeks to notice without regular inspection. Remote monitoring flags unusual output patterns that point to physical damage.
Simple. Automatic. Always watching.
System connected
Your inverter is connected to the MiniGrid monitoring platform — usually via your existing Wi-Fi or a data logger, with no new hardware required for most systems.
Data collected
Generation, consumption, battery state and inverter health data is captured continuously and benchmarked against your system’s expected performance model.
Faults detected
Our certified engineers handle everything — panels, inverter, battery, new consumer unit, surge protection and grid connection. Clean, fast, done right.
MiniGrid responds
We’re alerted automatically. Our engineers review the data, diagnose the likely cause and contact you with a recommendation — before the fault costs you another week of lost output.
Everything you’d want. Nothing you don’t need.
Real-time generation data
Live output data accessible via your dashboard — see exactly what your system is producing at any moment.
Automated fault alerts
Push notifications and email alerts the moment the platform detects unusual behaviour — before it becomes expensive.
Monthly performance reports
A clear monthly summary of generation, savings and system health — sent automatically with no action required from you.
Inverter error notifications
Inverter error codes translated into plain English and sent to you and MiniGrid simultaneously — no more mystery fault codes.
Year-on-year comparison
Automatic seasonal and annual comparisons so you can see if your system is performing better or worse than previous years.
Engineer review on any alert
Every alert is reviewed by a MiniGrid engineer — not just logged. You’ll always get a human assessment, not just a notification.
Works with most inverter brands.
