Jason Pope
Independent technical consultant
Electrical systems. Solar PV and battery storage. Air conditioning and heat pumps.
Thirty years of engineering experience, available as independent technical input on projects where getting it right matters.
What I do
Most of the work I take on falls into one of four areas.
System design and specification
I survey, assess, and produce a written specification for electrical, solar, or air conditioning installations. This is particularly useful for developers, architects, or project managers who need a technically rigorous specification before going to tender, or who want an independent review of a design that has already been produced.
Technical consultancy and advisory
If you have a complex system, an unusual installation, or a project that does not fit neatly into a standard approach, I can work with you to think it through properly. This includes inverter and battery storage integration, multi-split air conditioning design, and systems where electrical, solar, and thermal elements need to work together.
Training and knowledge transfer
I work with installation teams, developers, and manufacturers on a project basis to transfer technical knowledge across electrical systems, solar PV, and refrigerant-based equipment. If your team is encountering new technology or expanding into an area where deeper technical understanding would reduce errors and callbacks, I can help.
Expert and assessment work
I am available to provide independent technical assessment for insurance purposes, building disputes, or system performance investigations. This includes written reports and, where required, expert opinion.
If what you need does not fit neatly into one of those descriptions, get in touch anyway. Most of the interesting work does not.
Background
I started in electronics, spent twenty years in telecommunications with the RAF, Nokia, and EE, and have worked as a qualified electrician for the past thirteen years. In 2018 I founded Selec Group, a specialist electrical, solar, and air conditioning business based in Cambridgeshire, which I continue to run.
What that combination gives you is someone who understands how systems work at a component level, how they are installed in the real world, and how they perform over time. That is a different thing from pure design experience or pure installation experience, and it tends to matter on the projects where things are genuinely complicated.
Qualifications and accreditations
NAPIT registered electrician (No. 33465). MCS accredited for solar PV and battery storage installations. City and Guilds 2079 F-Gas certified. City and Guilds 2081 split system air conditioning. TrustMark and RECC accredited through Selec Group.
All consultancy work is carried out through Jason Pope Ltd.
