[RE-wrenches] large array on 200 amp service

[Peter Parrish]

One way, if you want the feed to be on the customer’s side of the meter, is to install a new service panel with meter jaws that are designed to be “double lugged”. That is the two lugs on the customer side have accommodation for a solar backfeed. There are rules about the OCP and disconnect, but the entire arrangement is code compliant. 

 

Not every manu sells these panels, and off the top of my head I can’t remember the one we used many years ago. I’ll find out the make and model if you want.

Hello Wrenches,

What are folks doing when installing 100A plus of solar into a 200A service?
