Thanks for sharing that Dana,

 

Are you required by code or the AHJ, for micro-inverter systems, to have an
additional AC d/c aside from the branch circuit breaker? (on the roof or
other location)

 

For these micro-inverter systems the only labeling required here, by code
(CEC), is;

84-030 (1) which states...   

" A warning notice of an interconnected system shall be installed in a
conspicuous place at the supply authority disconnecting means of Rule 84-022
and the supply authority meter location."

 

84-022 is generally referring to the load center main breaker.  And the
utility company puts their own "WARNING: interconnected system" label at the
meter.

 

So we don't 'have to' provide any additional info, but i think that
providing some is a good idea. As Ray pointed out, too much info can be
discouraging.

 

For now, I have opted for these labels on the load center as the only
labeling for the system;

Code required -- "WARNING Two Power Source Parallel System" and;

Optional for info -- "Grid-Connected Solar Electric System

                                    Array Rating: 660 WDC

                                Module Rating (each): 220 WDC"

....the optional one will of course need to be replaced and updated if/when
the owner decides to add to his system.

 

cheers,

benn
