• • Accredited persons should allow at up to 10 business days for their application to be processed.
  • Their accreditation expiry date will not change upon transferring and accredited persons will still need to renew by the existing date.
  • If an accredited person’s accreditation expires before they have completed their renewal with SAA, any systems they install or design during this period will not be eligible for STCs.
• Closely monitor system installation dates. The installation date on the STC paperwork, the certificate of electrical safety and the STC creation must reflect the date the solar PV system is installed. This date cannot and should not be changed by third parties to match an accredited installer or designer’s accreditation period.
