2017 PV Code Webinar

5 years later….Still a great informative video showing and walking through the mistakes others have made. Thank you for posting 👌🏻

Great presentation. I appreciate that you called out those Massachusetts-specific items since I'm not in Mass. Ohio won't adopt the 2020 code until January 2022, so it is still relevant to me.

re; The green screw in the PV disconnect. My interpretation is that the SUSE rating of the disco is for survivability and longevity. That requirement does not make the disco a "service point". The 'service point' is where the main breaker, or fuse, is located and where the grounded conductor is bonded to the GEC system. That is the only location that I want the grounded conductor bonded to the GEC system. I want the neutral to float everywhere else and bond to ground only at the main breaker service point. Great presentation. Thanks so much for this! To prove torque I accept a torque log, a wet stick and torque mark on tape, or even a protected torque wrench set at the demonstrated required torque level. Never a picture. Note; I regularly see conductors laying on the roofing. Conductors abrade on 3-tab comp in time. THEN the entire system gets a very good looking over. (and yes, stay out of the utility meter with your tap. once the POCO seals the meter it's not an accessible termination)

really helpful as a diy. would like the moderator to touch on ac combiners, bypass transfer switches and critical load panels to complete my basic knowledge.

So #12, 14 and 10 can be re identified. #6, 8 continuous outer finish required…?

Any chance you will be doing a NEC 2020 code webinar in the near future? (especially given that MA is one of the few states that have adopted NEC 2020)

Hello, do you have this for 2020 NEC?

Very informative and useful.

Major non conformance should include a tiny photovoltaic system that can not power everything in home. A home with a photovoltaic system should be disconnected from gas and electric entirely. Efficiency homes centered around retirement and minimal house work.

too long to be seen. it would be better to separate commercial and residential, and concentrate on difference of 2017 vs 2014. You run too wide

Wow, I've never seen so many scary insulation piercing tap pictures at once. Solar installers really use these often? Sh!t...

At 16:43 --- "PV disconnect must service-rated" Seems to be missing a pronoun or something there. Maybe they need to use grammerly? :)

Keep a stash of fuses. If i was a lineman i would ground the hell out of this photovoltaic backfeed to achieve my equipotential grounded safety zone.

The giant joke about solar company’s is them thinking they are installing something that’s rocket science 😂😂😂 literally could teach a 12 year old how to install solar ….

Pretty dry presentation…until the guy with clean gutters!…🤣… thanks for the info dense video…most was within my limited brainpower…a bit flew over…🤷🏻‍♂️

Who gave thumbs down?
