The same thing that currently happens when somebody does that with a gas generator? Linepersons get zapped… people get sued… etc…
There isn’t any data transmission over the wires…
That’s very wrong. Not only can you extend Ethernet in your own home using your power outlets, the power companies have been reading meters this way for decades.
For a permanent installation, yes, just like a large solar installation. But I can go down to Lowe’s and get a gas generator capable of similar output as the balcony solar and it won’t require any permits.

Kinda seems like something you might want to avoid…
Obviously. I was just pointing out that it isn’t an issue unique to solar.
It is unique to “balcony solar”. Typical solar systems require permits and inspections before connecting.
No it isn’t. The same thing happens with the kind of gas generators you can get from your local hardware store all the time.
As I mentioned several times elsewhere, gas generators also typically require permitting.

Which is what balcony solar is.
Though this does vary by locale, in most places legally it’s only permanent if you have to leave it there when you move.
