Utility solar manager sent the solar inspector out to see what I had. Said the existing CB disconnect, next to meter, was OK but a...

The utility requires a second disconnect at the inverter end where solar AC goes underground . I could hire an electrician, coordinate...

Learning more about 120% rule and load vs line. Where does the ability to tap line side end - at first ocpd? One of my meter feeds is...

Or, the original questions, would a Siemens bolt on pass code in a Homeline? Or if lower cost used Sq D 225a $70 on Amazon, same or...

Sorry tried to change mid thought and deleted while editing original post. Yes, more 150a and 200a available, 150A main as in...

Running wire for new breaker panel in building where solar is going. Attached 200a panel connects directly to the meter through a...

Looking for least disruptive, code passing, change to get more amps for the inverter's 48a. Easiest changing the dual 100a breaker to...

I don't claim to fully understand the 120% rule but one definition referred to the main service panel capacity. I appear to have three...

Discussing grid tied inverters and AC amps out, Hedges wrote about the 120% rule and breaker choices. Liking the Growatt 11.4 grid...

Agree but I pretend I am a good neighbor and not take grid watts from them :). Rewiring the house for a single feed (disconnect and...

Previously robbob suggested another look at the 18kPV manual wiring. It still shows CTs used in all five diagrams. Signature has said...

I looked at my steel purlins again and they are 4.5 - 5 ft apart. Which means some panel borders will have one or two trapezoids to...

I have the Square D Q22200NRB next to and fed from the meter. Lots of confusion as the utility specifies external handle, non modular...

Next door neighbor has what I want, he claims electric bills have only the meter charge (now $27) for the last six years and shows zero...

Thank you for the replies. Hopefully to clarify Hedges - no mention of a grid feed limit until Tariffs where under 50kW get credited...

Want ~14-15k, 32 to 40 400W panels, on a building distant, but fed, from the meter. Utility (net zero) said grid tied easily approved...

But it doesn't actually do that. Pulling the inverter grid disconnect leaves the critical panel running off the inverter batteries...

Also R panel, was leaning toward a Rib3. Then I started thinking my steel purlins might hold better than a rib, and added Versa 67 or...
