Thanks for sharing that Dana,<div><br></div><div>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)</div><div><div><br></div><div>For these micro-inverter systems the only labeling required here, by code (CEC), is;</div><div>84-030 (1) which states... </div><div>“ 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.”</div><div><br></div><div>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.</div><div><br></div><div>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.</div><div> </div><div>For now, I have opted for these labels on the load center as the only labeling for the system;</div><div>Code required -- "WARNING Two Power Source Parallel System" and;</div><div>Optional for info -- "Grid-Connected Solar Electric System</div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span> Array Rating: 660 WDC</div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span> Module Rating (each): 220 WDC"</div><div>....the optional one will of course need to be replaced and updated if/when the owner decides to add to his system.</div><div><br></div><div>cheers,</div><div>benn</div><div><br><span class="ecxecxecxEC_Apple-style-span" style="color:rgb(0, 32, 96)">DayStar Renewable Energy Inc. </span><div><div>benn@daystarsolar.ca</div><div>780-906-7807 </div><div>HAVE A SUNNY DAY
