Do PV systems have supply-side connections?

To this point, installers have been making supply-side connections in PV systems following the Code to the best of their ability. But with some admittedly vague rules around a few key issues, we wanted to address supply-side connections here.

Are supply-side connections a new service?

In the end, the most succinct advice for supply-side connections is to treat them as new service disconnects, even though as we’ll explain, PV systems do not constitute a new service.

However, note that NEC 230.82 (6) stipulates that the supply-side connection must be “service rated” which could cause some confusion for the inspectors and installers. If you have questions on how to ensure your systems designs comply with NEC section 705.11, our System Design & Engineering team is happy to help.
