Jim,
In Oregon we have a Limited Renewable Energy Technician license. We are
capped at 25kw and can do residential and commercial. The LRT license
does not allow us to make final AC connections on any system and
requires a site visit from an electrician.
Regards,
Bob Maynard

the Texas Dept of Licensing and Regulation has (finally) proposed a
Limited Solar Electric License for installers in Texas. There is
currently no "solar license" in Texas.
Among other fairly arbitrary and borderline ridiculous potential
requirements (IMHO) is a 50 kWDC cap on the size of systems allowed,
based on inverter rated output. Also the license holder may not work on
commercial installations.
Are these typical of the license restrictions in other states?
thanks
