All Jobs [Solar PV modules (panels) cannot be installed over or block any attic vents, plumbing vents, furnace or water heater vents etc. // All wiring must be properly supported by devices or mechanical means designed and listed for such use and wiring must be permanently and completely held off of the roof surface. See NEC 110.2, 110.3(A), 110.3(B), and 300.4. Zip ties are typically not allowed since they are easily broken and do not provide a reliable method of supporting wires up off of the roof.]
- Attachment Detail
No single panel arrays
- Electrical Diagram
120% allowed only if all NEC requirements are being met. No engineering is required for using the 120% rule. All Plans: A single line (1-line) diagram There must be provided a solid #6 AWG copper ground wire to extend from each roof j-box and connect to each row of rails via a tin-plated copper ground lug (listed for outdoor use). NEC 690.43 and 690.46. Main service panel needs to be drawn to actual ; show main breaker on top, bottom, or center. Show PV breaker in actual location. MPU: Specify on line diagram the exact model number of the service panel to be installed. Provide manufacturer specification sheets for the new service panel
- Label Page
**ALL PROJECTS:** * Specify that a sign with the EXACT wording “Rapid Shutdown Switch for Solar PV System” must be provided next to the rapid shutdown disconnect for this system. **BATTERY PROJECTS:** * Please update the signage sheet to include a sign with the exact wording. “ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEM DISCONNECT.” The sign must include the Nominal AC Voltage and Maximum DC voltage of the ESS system. NEC 706.15(C II. * On the signage sheet, please add a sign to be placed at the service entrance that identifies the battery chemistry included in the ESS. IRC R327.11 (2021 Utah Amendments)

Ground mount

- Ground Mount Notes
Specify on the plans exactly how the wiring at the array is going to be protected so the wiring is not readily accessible. Typically, this is accomplished by providing a lockable fence immediately around the array (a fence around the entire property will not count for this), or to enclose the back sides of the solar modules (panels) so there is not any readily accessible wiring (such as using metal mesh with smooth edges and opening not larger than ½”, for example). See NEC 690.31(A). The plans must be very specific on the method of protection and how the equipment or materials for such protection will be installed (please also be aware that zip ties are NOT allowed for securing the material to the backs of the modules). In addition to the above noted comment, the plans must clearly specify that any wiring leaving the immediate underside of the solar panels must be installed in and protected in conduit. NEC 300.4. C. Please provide a detail on the plans explaining how the equipment is to be supported at the ground-mount array. Also, there must be noted on the plans that there must be a clear 6’6” clear headroom directly in front of the equipment, as required per NEC 110.26.
