r <br /> T S� S Ln <br /> Tesla Standard Photovoltaic Systems - Electrical Qualification Certification Letter <br /> Tesla is offering standard solar photovoltaic(PV) systems to simplify the ordering and install <br /> experience, lower costs, and make solar accessible to more Americans. All applicable electrical <br /> code/requirements have been incorporated into the decision-making process for these <br /> standardized offerings. The material selection and installation practice of these PV systems are <br /> fixed. Product datasheets and UL listings provided are exclusively used for this standardized PV <br /> product and provide information on PV module and PV inverter used. The repeatability of this <br /> standardized product offering ensures compliance with the NEC. Please refer to the design <br /> documentation with all the code compliant wiring options that can be utilized. <br /> Prior to commencement of installation, Tesla's Electrician/Contractor shall verify existing service <br /> conductor and electrical panel to be in suitable condition for interconnection, not exhibiting <br /> previous arc or physical damage on insulation of service conductors and panel busbar which <br /> may affect ampacity and its ability to establish proper connection between the PV inverter and <br /> utility grid. The interconnection is performed ensuring that any one of the methods discussed in <br /> NEC section 705.12 is followed. <br /> The system can be interconnected to the utility grid in two ways: <br /> 1. Supply side connection as covered by NEC Section 230.82(6) and NEC Section <br /> 705.12(A), The sum of the ratings of all PV over-current protection device connected <br /> shall not exceed the rating of the service. <br /> 2. Load side connection as covered by NEC article 705.12(D)(2). The section specifies <br /> that interconnection is permitted, provided one of the methods of interconnection to <br /> busbar are followed. Approved load side interconnection methods are listed in the <br /> following: <br /> - Feeder in accordance with NEC 705.12(D)(2)(1) <br /> - Load side tap in accordance with NEC 705.12(D)(2)(2) <br /> - Breaker tie-in on busbar in accordance with NEC 705.12(D)(2)(3) <br /> I certify that installation of Tesla standard photovoltaic (PV) systems with interconnection to an <br /> electrical service meets the criteria outlined in NEC article 690, 705 and related articles in NEC <br /> and is therefore permitted by code. The PV system design described in the design document, <br /> when properly installed and maintained, meets the minimum recommended practices <br /> established by the Florida Solar Energy Center(FSEC) certification and those requirements set <br /> forth by the most recent edition of Florida Building code(FBC). This approval does not imply <br /> endorsement or warranty of the mo;yiV& lain erter. <br /> ���P�p,NO 'SF/r���i <br /> ♦ '9 <br /> • <br /> Chidanand Sekar, P.E. ♦ Cj;• v�GENSF••'•.9 ��.� <br /> Electrical Engineer, Tesla : No 83534 <br /> csekar(cDtesla.com *; <br /> Direct. 614 256 5685 Exr 4*60 z1jr <br /> Licensed in Florida 9'; STATE OF :I-'Z <br /> %i O •.
