I'm trying to figure out a way to hook 4.5kW (30A OCPD required) of solar to a house that is using a MLO as a service panel. The panel has 2 breakers on it, one 50A breaker for the A/C and a 100A for a subpanel. Since this is a MLO panel I'm wondering how it is protected. Is it the size of the feeders coming from the meter? (Its a meter/main combo.)
The concerns i have is that the sticker with the panel information has long worn off so the rating of the busbars is unknown. Which makes me nervous to suggest using a supply side connection since the feeders to the bus are quite a bit smaller than other houses I've worked with in the past. Any suggestions would be helpful!
