View Full Version : The Dangers of Solar Panels
tonkatojo's thread interested me so I had a look and found this (http://www.firehouse.com/forums/showthread.php?105422-Dangers-of-Solar-Panels) It's a warning to firefighters but should also be of interest to homeowners who had them fitted. To be honest I thought everyone knew once energised the panels shouldn't be interfered with.
I found that one too but the posts started in 2008. Of course, maybe the same advice still stands. I hope the firemen know the rights and wrongs of it all! ;)

Nah Bill the one I had was a humorous one, but good try.
I've just phoned the electrician and they are coming next week to remove my solar panels, I am very worried about this.
for goodness sake tell him to be careful, those things generate 3,000,000 volts dont you know.

The article linked to in the OP reminds me of the claim that solar electricity is dangerous because it comes from the sun - which is powered by the same mechanism that makes thermonuclear weapons so deadly!
