[RE-wrenches] AC-PVs

[frenergy]

That's a pretty hefty reimbursement for replacing a failed unit, they 
must of actually been thinking about the installer.  I also like the 
high efficiency PV they paired it with, 395 watts and its still 60 
cell,  inverter 97% CEC .

             Sorry about the wrong link, here's the correct one:

https://www.lg.com/us/business/neon-r/lg-lg395a1c-a6

             Should I assume that if the fire department pulls the meter 
at a house fire, that qualifies as rapid shutdown?
