- Oliver: you If you want to to the crisis there are since 1, 2026. The updated VDE application rule 4105 creates final clarity and security for so-called power plants. And here are three crucial points that you know. First, we have legal security through the 800 watt limit. Until now, were often inconsistencies between legal easing and technical norms. Since March 2026, has been officially established that the power of the switchers may be 500 watts. This means that the operation of this device is technically fully recognized and harmonized with the relevant laws. This means that if you are a tenant now, a higher energy expenditure for the basic load devices such as refrigerator, router or whatever you at home. The second point concerns the connection, which is now safe and uncomplicated. A central point for many fair-lovers was the question of special energy sockets. Here is the new norm warning. The operation via a conventional protective contact socket, i.e. a Schuko, i.e. the where the coffee machine is in, is only norm-conform. The is that the switcher has a certified network and system protection. The device switches off in milliseconds A current shock is therefore technically excluded. An expensive conversion of the electrical installation through a specialist for connection This absolutely not necessary anymore. These VLAN sockets are no longer So, as I said, very simple socket is enough. The third point is a higher efficiency by over-laying. That sounds a bit counter-intuitive but technically it is really interesting, because solar modules can with a total power of up to 2000 watts. Now you ask yourself, okay, but the switcher has to off at 800 watts. Why is that important now? Especially with balconies that may not be in the bright sun you secure a constant power production This the system significantly more It then regulates at 800 watts, but I can really just produce and have a higher possibility to in low light conditions. So, and now I've only about three points, but the fourth one I on top which is minimal bureaucracy. The registration was massively. The obligation to report to the network operator is missing in the old form. A simple registration in the market data register This means that the bureaucratic effort as a tenant is to a minimum. In summary, can say that the regulations of March 2026 make the Balkonkraftwerk a safe, verified and officially recognized household component. There are no more technical gray zones, which makes agreement with the landlord or the local administration much easier. So is still considering, I would just say ... Hang your stuff on the balcony, garage or garden house. It was never as easy and safe as it is Save electricity costs without headaches. That's it to work.
