We considered the necessity to shut down individual inverters and determined that the added costs of an inverter output combiner panel were not merited. I agree that in theory it seems beneficial to be able to switch each inverter individually, but how often does this occur in practice? For the relatively infrequent cases where we need to return to a jobsite and shut down an inverter - for troubleshooting/removal/etc. - we do not mind shutting down the other inverters (up to a limit) for what is hopefully a short period of time.
Again, this whole line of reasoning may be shown to be faulty if someone can directly point to the Code section that requires OCPD on each individual inverter. -- Corey ᐧ On Thu, Jun 26, 2014 at 9:20 AM, <re-wrenches-requ...@lists.re-wrenches.org> wrote: > > Message: 5 > Date: Wed, 25 Jun 2014 19:17:57 -0700 > From: William Miller <will...@millersolar.com> > To: RE-wrenches <re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org> > Subject: Re: [RE-wrenches] Combining Multiple Inverters > Message-ID: <04f4b8fd-e280-4bf2-b5a4-c2fca8d1c...@millersolar.com> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" > > Not allowed.
