We have been using WEEB clips on all of our installations for over a year now. We include the WEEB data/installation sheets in our permit package and patiently point out the clips to inspectors who haven't seen the WEEB system yet.
Two questions: (1) For ProSolar rails, can we use one WEEB clip to bond two adjacent modules (say, modules A and B) on the upper rail (say, rail #1) and then use a second WEEB clip to bond the next two adjacent modules (say, modules C and D) on the lower rail (say, rail #2) and then use a listed lay-in lug (with in our case a WEEB clip) to bond to either rail #1 or #2 to continue the grounding? (2) If we DON"T use WEEB clips and use the conventional bonding methodology per module manufacturer's instructions (proper location on the module, and listed screws, washers and nuts), do we have to ALSO bond the rails? We have an inspector in Pasadena, CA that is requiring this, but this is the first time we have been required to do so. Perhaps in the past year in ignorant bliss we have missed an important development? Or have we been dodging bullets for seven years and not even knowing it? - Peter Peter T.
