I've only heard about one ground mount of 200 panels being stolen a year or two ago. It's quite rare. You're looking at up to £20k plus install. You should have a record of the serial numbers to pass onto the insurers. I don't think they'll pay out if you don't provide this, I may be wrong.

The serial numbers on mine are mainly stickers which would just peel off

You should have had a copy presented with the handover pack. With the amount of cowboys that entered the industry I highly doubt you have this. When the panels are delivered in boxes there should have been a list of serial numbers on an A4 sheet which in turn would have been returned to the office and transferred onto a log for office records and clients handover. This is the correct format for a solar business.

Yes i am certain that somewhere we have the duplicates for all ours .
What i meant was that the serial numbers were only stuck on so easily removed to prevent identification

You mean they aren't under the glass as well? What's the manufacturer?

must admit not noticed them but if they should be I am certain they will be as we certainly never used cowboys

Builders aren't the cowboys, it's the greasy middle men that charm and never complete paperwork accordingly.
