6 FAQs about [Solar photovoltaic self-test exception handling]
Can a stand-alone photovoltaic system be tested?
Abstract: Tests to determine the performance of stand-alone photovoltaic (PV) systems and for verifying PV system design are presented in this recommended practice. These tests apply only to complete systems with a defined load. The methodology includes testing the system outdoors in prevailing conditions and indoors under simulated conditions.
Does a PV system need arc fault detection?
Article 690.11 in the 2011 NEC requires arc fault detection on all PV systems operating above 80 volts and mounted on buildings. The 2014 NEC extends that requirement by removing the limitation of PV systems mounted on buildings so that ground-mounted systems must also have arc fault detection.
Do solar PV systems need a professional inspection?
