Electric Service Reqs

Inverter:

Customer certifies that the RGS equipment includes a utility-interactive inverter or interconnection system equipment that ceases to interconnect with the UCNSB system upon a loss of UCNSB power. The inverter shall be considered certified for interconnected operation if it has been submitted by a manufacturer to a nationally recognized testing laboratory (NRTL) to comply with UL 1741. The NRTL shall be approved by the Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA).

If Customer adds another RGS which (i) utilizes the same utility-interactive inverter for both systems; or (ii) utilizes a separate utility-interactive inverter for each system, then Customer shall provide UCNSB with sixty (60) days advance written notice of the addition.

Disconnect:

UCNSB will require Customer to install, at customer’s expense and subject to the approval of UCNSB, a manual disconnect switch of the visible load break type to provide a separation point between the AC power output of the customer-owned renewable generation system and any Customer wiring connected to UCNSB’s electric system.

The manual disconnect switch shall be mounted separate from the meter socket on an exterior surface adjacent to the meter.

The switch shall be readily accessible to UCNSB and capable of being locked in the open position with a UCNSB padlock.

Compiled from public records, 2026. Tariffs and interconnection rules change; verify with UCNSB - Utilities Commission City of New Smyrna Beach before you rely on this. The useful move: if an installer says you need a main panel upgrade, ask how these tap and interconnection policies were considered first.
