Project: Raymond, Gordon
Per plan check letter, REV A changes have been made as follows:
1) Conductor wires have been resized to AWG #2. Upon review, it was
determined that #6 was too small, based on the required DC .
temperature derate of 0.41, the use of 4 strings with 12 modules per
string, and the listed record low and average high temperatures of 13
and 107 OF, respectively.
2) DC Conduit has been resized to 1-1/2" EMT to be sufficient for new
wire sizes.
3) Electrical calculations have been adjusted to match and reflect proper
wire sizes.
Please do not hesitate to get in touch with me if you have any questions or

Mr. Millett,
The conductor size that was changed may exceed that allowed — Circuit conductors shall be sized to carry the larger of
125% of the maximum currents calculated in 690.8(A) without any additional correction factors for conditions of use or
100% of the maximum current after conditions of use have been applied. Please revise the conductor sizing schedule to
justify the installation of the proposed conductor. See attached redlined plans for more information, or feel free to email
me back with any questions or concerns.
