Solar panels are generators that backfeed the line. Power utilities are going to take every opportunity to discourage/prevent/penalize the connection of generators to their lines.
Connecting your house to the grid poses more or less no threat to the grid or the linemen who work on it.
- mothballed 1y agoWhat does that have to roof plans and [structural] building plans? You know, the things I called out. I've never claimed there is a city/rural contrasting point of relevance on documenting the electrical generation capacity of the solar panels.
- PaulDavisThe1st 1y agoYou said: > The state has no law about me connecting to the electric grid without any building plans, drawings, or inspection. In fact I did so. That's more connected to others than solar panels are. But since your house is (presumably) not a generator, no, that's still less connected to others than even a single solar panel would be.
- mothballed 1y agoWhat on earth do roof and [structural] building plans have to do with eletrical connectivity to the grid? You're losing the plot and trying to lead us down another sideshow, that is the things i called out as the specific things city dwellers forgot I dont have that they require for the solar permit. 'Society' already decided i don't need those for literally anything else residential but solar. The most likely explanation is they simply forgot rural folks often don't have roof plans, and should have written an exception in such case that the solar permit could be issued without them.
