I own & operate a small company that does mainly residential service work and remodels, and am not familiar with PV work. Please forgive any mis-wording as I am not familiar with the terms used in this segment of our industry.
On a residential remodel/addition that we started today, the general contractor needs to have a conduit removed while he tears out and rebuilds a wall. The 3/4" conduit may also have to be relocated depending on how the wall goes together. The conduit comes through the roof right below a set of PV panels and goes to a small breaker box with a backfed 2-pole breaker inside (I think this acts as a disconnect for firemen and service techs to kill PV power to the house). This box is located on the outside of the house. I have 8 years of commercial experience so I am comfortable with relocating the conduit.
I would like to disconnect the THHN conductors (Black, Red, White, Green) at the above-mentioned breaker and pull them out of a section of the conduit while leaving the conductors connected on the roof. What precautions should I take when disconnecting and handling these wires?
Thanks in advance and please let me know if more information is needed.
