Is it safe to install photovoltaic panels on overhead lines
Installing solar panels under power lines is generally not advisable due to safety hazards, maintenance restrictions, reduced solar exposure, and potential electromagnetic interference. [pdf]FAQS about Is it safe to install photovoltaic panels on overhead lines
What if work under overhead power lines can't be avoided?
If work beneath live overhead power lines cannot be avoided, barriers, goal posts and warning notices should be provided. Where field work is taking place it may be impractical to erect barriers and goal posts around the overhead lines - these are more appropriate for use at gateways, on tracks and at access points to farm yards.
What are the risks of installing a solar PV system?
The installer is also faced with the dangers of handling potentially large and heavy equipment at height as well as ensuring that the installation of a solar PV system does not have a negative impact on the strength and integrity of the buildings structure (often a roof) where the system is to be mounted.
