Good morning All, Long time lurker, first time poster. Hope that someday I can learn as much as some of you have forgotten.
My local electrical utility and Fire Dept. are requiring a lockable DC disconnect ahead of the inverter. They want to break both conductors of the PV source circuit in this disconnect. I feel that this is a violation of 2008 NEC 690.13, and does not meet the criteria for the exception.
Thanks in advance for any input.
