If you’re thinking about installing solar panels in Lincolnshire, one of the most important decisions you’ll make is who carries out the work. With so many national companies advertising low prices, it’s tempting to go with the first quote that appears online.
But when it comes to electrical safety, system performance, and long-term support, choosing an MCS-certified and local installer makes all the difference.

At Quantum Electrical Services, based in Sleaford, we take pride in offering fully accredited, professional solar PV installations — combining technical excellence with local customer care.

What Does MCS-Certified Mean?

MCS (Microgeneration Certification Scheme) is a UK quality assurance standard for renewable energy installations, including solar PV. It ensures that both the products used and the installer meet strict technical and safety standards.

When you choose an MCS-certified installer, you can be confident that:

  • Your system meets current UK regulations and building standards.

  • The equipment used (panels, inverters, batteries) is tested and approved for performance and safety.

  • You remain eligible for Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) payments for any unused electricity exported back to the grid.

Only MCS-accredited installations qualify for these schemes — so it’s an important box to tick before signing any contract.


Why a Local Installer Is the Better Choice

Large national firms often rely on subcontractors, which can mean rushed installations, minimal communication, and difficulty getting support later.
Choosing a local Lincolnshire installer like Quantum Electrical Services offers several clear benefits:

1. Personal Service and Accountability

With a local business, you deal directly with the electrician who installs your system — not a call centre. That means honest advice, tailored solutions, and a genuine focus on quality.

2. Knowledge of Local Conditions

We understand the Lincolnshire climate, roof types, and planning considerations, allowing us to design systems that perform efficiently in your specific environment.

3. Easier Aftercare and Maintenance

If you ever need assistance, we’re just a short drive away — not a faceless national office hundreds of miles from your home.

4. Supporting Local Trade and Reputation

Choosing a local company helps strengthen your community, keeps investment within Lincolnshire, and supports a small business built on trust and word-of-mouth.

5. No Pushy Sales Tactics

We don’t rely on commissions or aggressive sales targets. Our advice is clear, honest, and based on what’s genuinely right for your home.
