[RE-wrenches] Conduit across walkways

[Andrew Truitt]

Wrenches - What is your take on conduit across walkways on commercial
rooftops?

The 2012 IFC says "The DC combiner boxes shall be located such that conduit
runs are minimized in the pathways between arrays." so that would indicate
that this is acceptable.  Is there anything in the NEC or OSHA that
requires some type of step or protection for conduits in access walkways?
I am concerned with a scenario where the conduit is covered with snow and
becomes an even bigger trip hazard and potential source of damage to the DC
conductors.



For a brighter energy future,

"Don't get me wrong: I love nuclear energy! It's just that I prefer fusion
to fission. And it just so happens that there's an enormous fusion reactor
safely banked a few million miles from us. It delivers more than we could
ever use in just about 8 minutes. And it's wireless!"
