What are the key codes for solar PV & battery storage?
This article highlights the key codes and some of the top sections contractors working with solar PV and battery storage should be familiar with. The most common code system designers, installers, and inspectors refer to for PV and ESS systems are NFPA 70, or the National Electrical Code ( NEC ).
Are photovoltaic solar energy systems safe?
The safe and reliable installation of photovoltaic (PV) solar energy systems and their integration with the nation’s electric grid requires timely development of the foundational codes and standards governing solar deployment.
What NFPA codes are used for PV & ESS systems?
The most common code system designers, installers, and inspectors refer to for PV and ESS systems are NFPA 70, or the National Electrical Code ( NEC ). PV systems have requirements that span multiple Code articles, so technicians need to navigate throughout the NEC to install code-compliant PV and ESS systems.
What is a solar Code Article?
Another Code article that will be nearly universally referred to during the design and installation of PV systems is Article 705, Interconnected Electric Power Production Sources. This article covers the requirements for all power production sources interconnecting together, so it isn’t unique to solar.
Are PV systems regulated by fire codes?
Outside of the NEC, technicians need to be cognizant of the fire codes their jurisdictions enforce and how PV systems are regulated within those codes. The most common fire codes are NFPA 1, Fire Code and ICC’s International Fire Code (IFC). These codes typically impact the physical layout of PV modules on the roof of a building.
What are the different fire codes for PV modules?
The most common fire codes are NFPA 1, Fire Code and ICC’s International Fire Code (IFC). These codes typically impact the physical layout of PV modules on the roof of a building. The intent is to provide safe access around the equipment in the case of a first responder suppressing a structure fire from a building’s rooftop.
