Bill, 

Specifically, the additional fusing and disconnect requirement you mentions.
Is that each positive and negative PV Source and Output Circuit must have
OCPD and go through switched?  Twice the combiner boxes, fuses and switches?

Thanks,

Ungrounding the array requires additional fusing and disconnects, but the
most significant difference is that the module wiring and all external cable
must be PV Wire/Cable. Therefore only modules with PV Wire/Cable can be used
in these systems. You must confirm from the manufacturer that they have made
the switch. Hopefully all manufacturers will be installing PV Wire/Cable
soon so that this will not be a problem anymore.
