Tech/Engineering - Construction / Civil Engineering / installation of solar panels
English term or phrase: building control
FQA regarding installation of solar panels:
"Will I need to inform building control?"
I have a suggested translation of 'CTS' (which I believe stands for Central Tilstandskontrol og Styring...?).
Is this correct? The source text is from the UK, if that makes any difference.
Thanks :-)

Søge om byggetilladelse


Explanation:
A similar question in Danish could be: Skal jeg søge om byggetilladelse?

For some building projects in Denmark, you must first apply for permission with the local authorities (kommunens tekniske forvaltning). The Building Control in the UK has a similar function, as far as I can see.

I don't know what CTS is. It doesn't look right.

Notes to answerer
Asker: I'm afraid "byggetilladelse" is not it since the text also mentions "planning permission." The links are quite helpful though, so thank you!
