<p>Thanks Darryl.</p>
<p>I guess I can add that I am in CA and so looked only at the 2014.
I also looked at the 2017 article. Man, I have to say, my
impression remains that really starting with 2008 the code has
just gotten worse and worse when it comes to PV, but that is just
me.</p>
<p>Not really sure what might need to be "Outside readily
accessible". Is there something other than 690.12 that I need to
look at?</p>

As I recall, an inverter and it's integrated DC disconnect
need only be placed in an accessible location. I am thinking
of putting an inverter high up on the wall inside a garage.
That would be OK vis-a-vis the location of the disconnect
(still accessible for maintenance).<br>
<br>
If I do put the inverter high up on the wall, I can limit my
DC conductors to less that 10 feet total from the array and
less that 5 feet inside the garage.<br>
<br>
That means I get the exemption from the rapid disconnect
requirement, right?<br>
<br>
There is nothing in the Code linking the accessibility of
the DC disconnect to the exemption from rapid shutdown,
right?<br>
