Plan Set Requirements

Utah does not want single panel arrays with railless systems. Please have layout changed if this happens Provide photos of the existing service panelboard and photos of its interior labels. Photos must be with the service panelboard's front covers open and show the ratings of all breakers therein. The photos of labels must also clearly show the rating of the panelboard. In addition to the above noted comment, if the utility meter base is not part of the same panelboard as the service panelboard, please also provide photos of the meter base and the service conduit (with photos taken from about 5 to 10 feet away from the equipment).

Attachment Detail

No single panel arrays

Electrical Diagram

Please be aware that the line diagram must be drawn correctly based on the type of service panel that this home has. In other words, the layout of the service panel on the diagram must match that of the actual service panel. Generic layouts of service panels on the line diagram will not be accepted.

Label Page

## BATTERY 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)).
