NEC compliance
NEC compliance
(OP)
Hello,
I am trying to find out if a design of a residential battery operated AC power source (similar to a UPS) is by the NEC code or if not, how to get it to be code compliant.
The power source requires access to power coming from a renewable energy source - not Gridtie. The line has to run AC from the inside to the outside to a small unit that sits on the ground under some solar panels/turbines/etc. As a variation the line from inside to outside could be also carry DC.
What doe the NEC codes say about this power line and setup, pro & cons, any experience ?
Thank you
Markus

Another is http://www.solarpowerworldonline.com/2014/09/new-n...
Aee Solar Renewable Energy Design Guide and catalog http://www.aeesolar.com/2015-aee-solar-design-guid... have a lot of examples of off-grid as well as grid tie. This Guide is excellent.
Tis one is grid tie but it covers the nec codes that may also apply to off -grid http://www.senecass.com/NEC2000.pdf
Google "off grid solar" for a lot of other examples.

Unfortunately the "Aee Solar Renewable Energy Design Guide" does not work.
