Wiring Methods Where the number of current -carrying conductor in a raceway exceed three (3) the allowable Ampacity of each conductor shall be -reduced as shown in Table 3 10.1 S(B)(@)(a), CEC 310.15(B)(2). Adjust accordingl�. We have revised the drawings P V-1 & PV -2 to reflect the routing of conduiticonductors and have revised tile wire & conduit sizing. Am conduit runs have been clearly identified We have determined that the'attics of both building are accessible and we are routing the, conduits on the properties concrete wall to the panel location. Grounding Grounding information not shown on plans. System grounding, Equipment grounding, Equipment bonding and Array ied on plan per California Electrical . grounding shall be designed and specif Code Article 690, Part V. Equipment Grounding Conductor (EGC) to ground metal equipment and an Grounding Electrode Conductor (GEC) from inverters are both'required, see 11 review redlined plan. We have, revised our drawing, PV -2 to show both the EGC & CEG.ground ;Wres. Marking, Connection to Other Sources, Storage Batteries and Systems over 600 volts I The sum of the ampere ratings of overcurrent devices in circuits supplying power to a busbar of conductor shall not exceed 120 percent of the rating of the busbar or conductor. (CEC 690.64(B)(2)) The proposed load center does not comply — (34+35+70)/1.2 = 116.6A (125A panel required. The panel size has been increased to 200 amps. Miscellaneous Comments Red Marks on plans, even if not specifically mentioned in this list, indicate items needing correction. Revise Plans as necessary and provide written'response, noting where correction 'can be found.
