The tax credit applies to SYSTEMS, not replacement components

  Dear Wrenches,

  Today I told a customer for whom I replaced a set of batteries that as far as I know, the 30% federal tax credit for residential PV systems could be applied to this expense. In this case the home is off-grid, a primary residence, and no credits were taken for the initial system. But I would post a question out to this list. Am I correct in my advice?

  Thank you,
