These self-contained units offer plug-and-play solar solutions for remote locations, emergency power needs, and grid supplementation. This comprehensive guide examines their
eral model codes have been developed to promote minimum standards and uniformity across AHJs. Most notably, the International Code Council, a membership association.
PDF version includes complete article with source references. Suitable for printing and offline reading.
Another Code article that will be nearly universally referred to during the design and installation of PV systems is Article 705, Interconnected Electric Power Production Sources. This article covers the requirements for all power production sources interconnecting together, so it isn’t unique to solar.
PV systems also have structural requirements and codes associated with them. Many jurisdictions use ICC’s International Building Code (IBC) and ASCE 7 to guide the structural components of a PV installation.
This article highlights the key codes and some of the top sections contractors working with solar PV and battery storage should be familiar with. The most common code system designers, installers, and inspectors refer to for PV and ESS systems are NFPA 70, or the National Electrical Code (NEC).
The most common code system designers, installers, and inspectors refer to for PV and ESS systems are NFPA 70, or the National Electrical Code (NEC). PV systems have requirements that span multiple Code articles, so technicians need to navigate throughout the NEC to install code-compliant PV and ESS systems.
