4 FAQs about [Overhead solar panels]

Can solar panels be installed near ESB live overhead power lines?

If proposed vertical type solar panels are to be installed on the site adjacent to ESB Live Overhead Power Lines then a separate study will be required by Asset Management Section ESBN, Leopardstown Road, Foxrock, Dublin 18 in advance of the Solar Panel Farm Owner/Designer applying for planning permission. 2. Access to Overhead Power Lines

How should solar panels be anchored?

All Solar Panels and their associated cables should be adequately anchored onto their frames and the frames onto the ground so that they cannot be blown up onto the Overhead Power Lines or into the corridors mentioned above.

Who should design a solar panel farm?

The Solar Panel Farm Owner and Designer should ensure that ESBN and or its Contractors have fast direct access to ESBN’s Overhead Power Lines at all times. The Designer and Owner of the Solar Panel Farm should design the required access routes into their proposed scheme.

What is a lateral area near an overhead electricity line?

The corridor is a lateral area near an overhead electricity line which must normally be isolated from the work site by physical barriers to minimise the risk of accidental contact or near contact with the overhead line by plant and machinery, equipment, scaffolding or other materials.
