As a references, the Solar Structural Technical Appendix hyperlink is provided: http://www.opr.ca.gov/docs/Solar_Structural_Technical_Appendix.pdf Inspection Information Once a photovoltaic system permit has been issued and the system has been installed, it must be inspected before final approval is granted. Inspections are required to be scheduled twenty-four (24) hours in advance at: (760)776- 6420 Monday through Friday (8AM to 4PM) Same day inspection will not be provided. Qualifying small rooftop PV systems will be inspected in one (1) site visit, if under 0 kilowatts. If PV system is over 0 kilowatts it will require a rough inspection after mounting system is installed. If the inspection does not pass, subsequent inspections will not conform to the one inspection policy per the California Solar Initiative AB2188. Permit holders must be prepared to show conformance with all technical requirements in the field at the time of inspection. The inspector will verify that the installation is in conformance with applicable code requirements and with the approved plans.An OSHA approved ladder must be provided by the contractor of record or property owner at the time of inspection. Here are some common points of inspection you should be prepared to show: Number of PV modules and model number match plans and specification sheets number match plans and specification sheets. Array conductors and components are installed in a neat and workman-like manner. PV array is properly grounded. Electrical boxes are accessible and connections are suitable for environment. Array is fastened and sealed according to attachment detail. . Appropriate signs are properly constructed, installed and displayed. Smoke detector and carbon monoxide alarms are required at final inspection. Page Ќ of Ѝ TPMS34.1662!TUSFBNMJOFE!QW QUICK TIPS FOR CONTRACTORS & PROPERTY OWNERS WHEN APPLYING FOR A SOLAR PERMIT: Permit applicants can savetimeand moneyby following these tips. Take time to review permitrequirementsof the local jurisdiction. Permitting rules and processesdifferamong different cities and counties. Understanding all local requirementswill allow permit applicants to submit a complete and accurate permit applicationpacket the first time. Contact the local electric utility early in the permitting process (solar PVinstallations). Local electric utilities have a completely separate approval process from the local jurisdictionspermitting process. Some electric utilities may require that the solar projectbe reviewedbefore the local jurisdiction issues a building permit.Pursuing utility approval early in the permit process enables the solar PVsystem to become operational as soon as possible. Makesure that the solar installationthat is built matches the submitted plans. The on-site inspector will verify that the installation aligns withproposed plans and any changes may require corrections and additionalinspections. Page Ѝ of Ѝ
