So we just installed a 400 amp panel with a 200 amp main breaker and landed multiple "source" breakers from solar inverters.
Inspector will not pass this project until we combine all the source breakers in a combiner panel and land one dedicated breaker in the main panel.
He is referencing 705.12(B)(1) Dedicated Overcurrent and Disconnect. I interpret this as meaning that every inverter should have a dedicated breaker, but not necessarily that they cannot all be landed in one panel.
What do you think about that code interpretation?
thanks
