SLD Reqs

_**-Module must be approved by FSEC. If module is NOT approved (ie. REC290) then EE stamps are REQUIRED. **_

_**-Must type in the FSEC Registration Number on single line. Use the link below to find registration number.**_

**https://scp.fsec.ucf.edu/Certification/Ratings/PVModuleListingPage.aspx (https://www.google.com/url?q=https://scp.fsec.ucf.edu/Certification/Ratings/PVModuleListingPage.aspx&sa=D&source=hangouts&ust=1585424043245000&usg=AFQjCNGCfpGk8t7PdwAdN7veFdAAamDpRA) **

Electric Service Reqs

**External Disconnect Switch. **

1. For Tier 1 RGS OUC recommends but does not require, an isolation device (manual disconnect switch). However, without an isolation device, (should there be a need to isolate the RGS) OUC will remove the meter, resulting in loss of utility distribution service.

2. For Tier 2 and Tier 3 RGS, OUC reserves the right to require an isolation device per IEEE 1547-2003. The isolation device shall be a lockable manual disconnect switch of the visible load break type that is both visible to and accessible by OUC personnel. The isolation device shall be located separate from, but adjacent to, the meter base.

_**Standards and Codes:**_

**1. Inverters, PV Modules and Panels **

* Inverter(s) must be listed and in compliance with Underwriters Laboratories (UL) Subject 1741, Standard for Static Inverters and Charge Controllers for Use in Photovoltaic Systems. Utility-interactive inverters that pass the tests of the UL 1741 standard will be, by definition, “non-islanding” inverters and will comply with the IEEE 1547-2003 interconnection standard.

* Multiple inverter units. For multiple inverter units, verification that the photovoltaic system ceases to energize within 0.16 seconds (per IEEE 1547-2003), upon loss of sensed voltage, is required. This is verified with on-site testing. 10/19/16

* PV modules must be listed and be in compliance with Underwriters Laboratories (UL) Standard 1703, Standard for Safety: Flat-Plate Photovoltaic Modules and Panels.

* PV modules must be in compliance with IEEE Recommended Practice for Qualification of Photovoltaic (PV) Modules.

**2. System Installation. **

_Customer certifies that the RGS installed shall be in compliance with the following standards: _

* IEEE-1547 (2003) Standard for Interconnecting Distributed Resources with Electric Power Systems

* IEEE-1547.1 (2005) Standard Conformance Test Procedures for Equipment Interconnecting Distributed Resources with Electric Power Systems

* UL-1741 (2005) Inverters, Converters, Controllers and Interconnection System Equipment for use with Distributed Energy Resources

* Currently adopted National Electric Code, all relevant articles (or subsequent revisions) and local building codes

**Islanding: **

The Customer shall not energize OUC’s system when it is de-energized. The Customer shall cease to energize OUC’s system during a faulted condition on OUC’s system. The Customer shall cease to energize OUC’s system prior to the automatic or non-automatic reclosing of OUC’s protective device(s). There shall be no intentional islanding, as described in IEEE 1547, between the Customer’s and OUC’s systems.
