NOTES FOR INVERTER INPUT AND OUT CIRCUITS:
1) IF UTILITY REQUIRES VISIBLE-BREAK SWITCH, DOES THE AC DISCONNECT
SATISFY THE UTILITY REQUIREMENTS OR IS AN ADDITIONAL SWITCH NECESSARY?
2) IF INCENTIVE PROGRAM REQUIRES PV OUTPUT METER, ADD METER BASE THAT
MEETS REQUIREMENTS.
3) SIZE PHOTOVOLTAIC POWER SOURCE (DC) CONDUCTORS BASED ON MAX
CURRENT ON 690.53 SIGN OR OCPD RATING AT DISCONNECT (IF SUPPLIED).
4) SIZE INVERTER OUTPUT CIRCUIT (AC) CONDUCTORS ACCORDING TO INVERTER
OCPD AMPERE RATING.
OCPD = OVERCURRENT PROTECTION
DEVICE (IF NO OCPD–LEAVE ITEM BLANK)
NOTES FOR ARRAY WIRING:
1.) 2005 ASHRAE FUNDEMENTALS 2% DESIGN TEMPERATURES DO NOT EXCEED
47oC IN THE UNITED STATES (PALM SPRINGS, CA IS 43oC).
2) FOR LESS THAN 9 CURRENT-CARRYING CONDUCTORS IN ROOF-MOUNTED
SUNLIT CONDUIT AND USING THE OUTDOOR DESIGN TEMPERATURE OF 47oC,
a) 12 AWG CONDUCTORS ARE GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE FOR MODULES WITH
Isc OF 6.4 AMPS OR LESS WHEN PROTECTED BY A 10-AMP FUSE.
b) 10 AWG CONDUCTORS ARE GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE FOR MODULES WITH
Isc OF 9.6 AMPS OR LESS WHEN PROTECTED BY A 15-AMP FUSE.
