M&N Solars supplies and installs solar electricity and backup power systems for homes and businesses in Pretoria and scheduled service areas across Gauteng. From inverter-and-battery backup to complete solar conversions, we design the system around the loads you actually need to run.
Finance may be arranged, subject to application and approval.
You may only need essential backup during an outage, or you may want solar panels to generate electricity every day. We help establish the practical starting point and allow for sensible future expansion where possible.
Keep selected essentials operating during an electricity interruption without adding solar panels immediately.
Combine solar panels, a hybrid inverter and battery storage to generate, store and manage electricity.
Assess an existing installation before adding panels, battery capacity or upgrading the inverter.
A reliable solar installation depends on how its components are selected, protected and integrated. Each part must be compatible with the next and suitable for the loads it is expected to support.
System size cannot be chosen from property size alone. We calculate the running load, startup demand, required backup duration and available solar production before recommending equipment.
For lights, internet, security, television, selected plugs and other agreed essentials.
Suitable for many homes when the essential-load circuits and battery capacity are planned correctly.
For larger residential or selected business requirements following a detailed load assessment.
For phased installations, unusual loads or properties that require a more tailored solution.
A solar fault can originate from the inverter, batteries, panels, protection equipment, wiring, settings or the load itself. Replacing a component before diagnosing the system can create further problems.
Error codes, shutdowns, overloads, transfer problems or a system that will not start.
Reduced backup time, charging faults, communication errors or batteries that disconnect unexpectedly.
Unexpectedly weak generation caused by array, wiring, shading, configuration or equipment issues.
Nuisance tripping, damaged protection components or essential circuits not operating as intended.
A useful quotation begins with understanding the result you expect—not simply selecting a package from a list.
Tell us whether you need outage backup, electricity savings, greater independence or an upgrade.
We identify essential circuits, expected power demand and the backup duration required.
Roof space, shade, equipment position, distribution board and cable routes are considered.
You receive an itemised proposal explaining the major components and installation scope.
The system is installed, configured and tested, with applicable handover and certification requirements addressed.
We are based in Móregloed, Pretoria North. Assessments, installations and planned repair visits further across Gauteng are arranged according to project scope and travel availability.
Móregloed, Montana, Sinoville, Annlin, Wonderboom, Akasia, Doornpoort, Magalieskruin and surrounding northern suburbs.
The Moot, Pretoria East, Pretoria West, Centurion and nearby areas for scheduled solar work.
Midrand, Fourways, Sandton, Randburg, Johannesburg and other areas by planned appointment.
The correct system depends on the appliances you want to run, their combined demand, required backup duration and your available roof space. We size the system after assessing these factors rather than using property size alone.
Often, yes. The inverter, battery system, distribution arrangement and future solar capacity should be planned correctly at the first stage. We will explain which expansion options are supported by the proposed equipment.
Not necessarily. A 5kW-class inverter can support many household essentials, but high-demand appliances and simultaneous loads must be considered. We identify which circuits should be backed up and explain the system limits.
Backup time depends on usable battery capacity and the power being consumed. The same battery may last many hours under a light load but discharge much faster when operating larger appliances.
Possibly. We first check inverter limits, battery compatibility, communication requirements, existing protection equipment and the solar-array configuration. Components should not be added until compatibility has been confirmed.
We can assess many existing systems, subject to equipment type, access and manufacturer support. After diagnosis, we will explain whether repair, reconfiguration or replacement is the sensible option.
A correctly designed hybrid or backup system can supply selected circuits during an outage. Operation depends on the inverter configuration, available battery energy, solar production and system protection.
High-demand appliances require careful planning and may need load control, scheduled operation or a larger system. We assess each appliance rather than assuming it can be included in the backed-up circuits.
The applicable inspection, sign-off and certification requirements depend on the installation scope and local requirements. These are confirmed as part of the proposal so you understand what is included.
Cost depends on inverter capacity, battery storage, number of panels, mounting, protection equipment, distribution work and installation complexity. An assessment allows us to provide an itemised proposal for the required system.
Send us your location, electricity priorities and any information about your current supply or existing system. We’ll help establish the correct next step.
