Solar Panels..?

Well it's install almost....They mounted the panels, wired everything up to house with battery. But the other two buildings are not installed. I have two main wires, one from the house and one from guest house/garage to the meter. They did not come and do a site survey their engineers did all by google and seen there were 3 buildings and asked about how many AC units and EV charger. Well now they have to connect the other 2 buildings to the main house. First stating saying well they only do 1 meter, we said OK it is 1 meter just 2 separate lines If they would have done a site survey they would have seen that So a comprise was met, we pay for the extra wire and supplies and they will do the work.
 
Well system is in and working. Runs off solar during day and at night runs off battery until about 4 am then pulls from grid until daylight then back on the system. Still working with (fighting) the company on the install problems. They sent out a crew of kids and they made some mistakes mounting and remounting the panels so now I have holes in the Tile roof that they used silicone to patch (won't work long) and left about 8 screw holes in my Patio Metal roof and screws extending through. The company wants me to pay the final bill for they say all is complete, I say when its connected to PEA and passed final inspection and issues are corrected then it complete...typical Thai company
 
Yesterday had an electrician come and redid the wiring to connect the building together for solar. He also installed a new Main panel in the house. Materials were about 12K baht not counting the main panel ( I brought already) and his labor with helper was 5K. Now he ran New main wires from the meter to the house, about 40 Meters, installed a new main breaker panel and a new box to house the two separate lines from my guesthouse/garage and main house so everything now is running off solar. 1030 am til about 830 pm the two worked. I gave them 2K bonus and they were thrilled.
