I will understand if they don’t want to put it out but they would really, really have to be grabbing at exposed conductors with both mf hands and a death wish to even have the slightest chance of electrocution. I respect firefighters 100%, so I get the emphasis on safety, but RSD for residential...

We literally have a paid, full time, professional Karen that drives around the neighborhood and reports every damn thing imaginable. Our HOA dues pay for this “service”. It’s insane. There was no conceivable way I could alter either system without getting a talking to and possibly fines from...

RSD requirements are an absolute racket. Been reading about this crap and its bumming me out. There seem to be a lot of people on youtube, and in these forums just ignoring the RSD code requirements with roof installs and TBH I can’t blame them. Talk about a solution in search of a problem.

Do you guys not have HOAs? My HOA is insane. The only thing new (in their eyes) will be the EMT conduit. It will run to the garage vs the north side of the house. Not a long run at all but they will notice new conduit. Heck, these assholes complained about existing conduit from my 14 year old...

Yes, panels and mounting equipment. This is more a tinker project for me so I can learn how to setup an off grid system. I am not worried about not having enough juice to charge up my PHEVs. I just want everything to be square with local code compliance. I could quickly hook all this up, its a...

I have two separate solar panel systems on my house. The one in yellow is on a string inverter (SMA) I recently replaced (Old one died after 13 years) with the help of the good folks on this forum. The other existing system (outlined in blue) on the garage uses Enphase M215 micros. Some of those...

I submitted the change request to my HOA. Told them im only swapping out panels. Actually going from black panels / cells with silver bus bars to entirely black panels (Trina Solar Black) so if anything, in their eyes, its an upgrade aesthetically. 13 years ago they rejected my installers...

Yeah, I get it, that makes sense. I suppose its best that I know how all this stuff works and I am figuring it out. The next hurdle I suppose is convincing the HOA that I can do the work myself. I really dont like the idea of starting from scratch to modify an existing system, so I guess Im just...

Im in the same boat in Littleton. I was willing to pay handsomely to get somebody to replace my dead SMA inverter with one I had purchased new myself. Every single installer I called wanted only to replace the whole damned system or nothing at all. I went and figured it out myself and it wasnt...

Signing up as an installer and adding the envoy to the resulting site did give me much more control over the Envoy. This gave me an option to request a scan and update the software on the Envoy, although neither worked. I got an email back from Enphase customer support and they removed the...

Yes I feel like if I got ahold of the right person this would be solved in no time.

Its hooked up via RJ45. I got into the webpage just fine, the problem is it will not scan unless Enphase enables scanning. Attached is a screenshot of System Administration > Device Scan Control and System Inventory. Both show the same scanning "inhibited" message. No idea why Enphase would...

Thanks for the reply. I cant even get to the point where the Envoy will even look for the micro inverters. If I go into the enlighten webpage then to System Administration > Device Scan Control, under "Current Scan" it just says: "Device scanning is inhibited. To re-enable device scanning...

I have an older PV system with M215 microinverters. When the system was installed back in 2011 I chose not to get the Envoy to monitor each panel. I think it was around $500 at the time so I decided against it. Anyway, found an Envoy-R on eBay, upon receiving it I quickly ran into a snag where...
