The house side
The concrete away from the yard parapet is the only place we draw a row.
Houses beside the station yard
Solar panels for your home in Egmore.
Where a terrace looks onto the station yard, that parapet is not a working edge. Ladders and rails stay on the house side of the slab. We do not reach over the boundary. The visit from Madipakkam is free.
The boundary you do not work over
The yard side is not a path.
The row sits inside, away from that parapet. We do not state a clearance in metres. If overhead wires run along that side, they are marked the way the Tambaram page describes. A house that does not face the yard, including the older streets off Pantheon Road, is an ordinary survey. The tank and a walkway still stay on the slab.
A sheet over a shop, with concrete only behind it, is the Saidapet case. An old brick roof that only looks flat is the Nungambakkam case. A car porch under the upper slab is the Kelambakkam case. A service cable along the front parapet is the Gopalapuram case. A neighbour's pipe on the slab is the Royapettah case. A room in a lodge cannot take the building's roof. A flat cannot take a common roof either. That is the Sholinganallur case. A tenant's bill is not the owner's signature. That is the Taramani case. City-wide module choice is on panels for a Chennai home.

The yard edge
That parapet is not a path. Ladders and rails do not reach over the boundary.
03
Tank and walkway
On the house side, the tank stays and a path stays. The row uses what remains.

DCR
Central assistance needs cells and modules made in India. Eligible homes can receive up to ₹78,000. The amount follows the scheme on the day you apply.
Who it suits
A house with its own terrace.
Independent houses are the usual fit. A lodge room and a flat cannot claim the building's roof. If the house does not face the yard, the survey is ordinary unless another limit on these pages applies.
How the row is fixed once the house side is clear is on solar panel installation. Modules you already hold are labour from ₹3,000 per kW, materials excluded, on installation services. The Egmore figure is on solar panels and prices in Egmore. How the crew sets the row is on solar panels and installation in Egmore. The subsidy gap is on panel and price. NDCR against DCR is in that guide before an import is confirmed.
Show whether the terrace faces the yard
The boundary, then the row.
Do you visit Egmore from Madipakkam?
Yes. The roof visit is free. A recent bill and a photo that shows whether the terrace faces the station yard are enough to start. No modules are ordered that day.
Can the row use the parapet facing the station yard?
No. That parapet is not a working edge. Ladders and rails stay on the house side. We do not state a clearance in metres.
The house does not face the yard. Does the same limit apply?
No. A terrace that does not look onto the yard is a normal survey. The tank stays, and a walkway stays.
Do subsidy plants need DCR modules?
Yes. Cells and modules must be made in India. Eligible homes can receive up to ₹78,000, subject to the scheme on the day you apply. NDCR is only if that assistance has already been given up.
Send a photo that shows the yard side, if there is one.
A free visit from Madipakkam. We keep rails on the house side of the slab, and note whether the plant should be DCR.
