This means that battery backup is not included, but may be added on a future date. Grid -tied solar systems will receive a net -meter from the local utility after the installation is complete and permit has been closed out. A grid tied solar system without battery backup may be net -zero but does not provide the home with energy in the event of a power -outage, as the solar inverter will automatically shut down in the absence of power from the grid. This is known as "anti-islanding" and is in place to protect the lives of powerline workers (it prevents back -feed of current to a grid that is down and worked on). For the solar system to function as a power source for backup in a power outage, backup batteries will be necessary. Initial:,_ Initial: b. The net -meter installation by the local power utility will require an "Interconnection Agreement" between the Owner and the utility. The Interconnection Agreement will govern the terms of the net metering relationship between the Owner and utility. The particular details of the interconnection agreement will vary from utility to utility, and based on the size of the solar system in kW (Tier 1, Tier 2 or Tier 3) that is being Interconnected. The interconnection agreement required by the utility may be accompanied by a one-time fee for the net meter and insurance requirements. Owner has reviewed and understands the Interconnection agreement required by their local utility for their relevant solar system size. Solar insolation is an inconsistent energy source which varies seasonally and with daily weather fluctuation. The power output of the solar array is also a function of the tilt and orientation (azimuth) of the solar installation. For maximum energy production, it is important to keep the solar panels free of shade caused by trees, buildings or other sources. Contractor is not responsible for tree trimming or any other shade prevention. For this reason, contractor does not guarantee system power output. However, contractor does provide estimated annual energy output in kWh based on system power rating in kW. To understand the total annual kWh energy output for the system contracted herein, match the system power rating as outlined In Article 1, Item 1, with the annual energy output in kWh In the following table: Page 8 of 13 Owner initials: IL Contractor initials: ID G- IS kDIKSOLAR 4.X �• Power Rating of System (kW) Expected Annual Energy Production (kWh) 5 7,592 7 10,629 10 15,184 12 18,221 15 1 22,776 20 30,368 25 37,960 The above table is based on 5.2 Peak Sun Hours per day, which Is the average daily solar insulation for South Florida, and 80`Yo conversion factor from DC to AC power. Monetary value of energy savings expressed as avoided cost of energy not purchased from utility will vary depending on retail price of energy from the local utility. Initial: litr> d.

The calculations have been performed in accordance with the 2012 International Building Code (IBC). The racking system has been designed to withstand code -prescribed forces due to its own weight, the weight of the solar panels, the snow loads, and both the wind and seismic forces. Rail Spans This report covers two different material options for the system rails. Although they are both aluminum, one rail option uses a 6063 alloy (25 ksi yield) and the other uses a 6005 ."'alloy (35 ksi yield). ...... .... . . ;.... Despite"ng different yield strengths, both types of rails support the PV panels.

Detdrinine the mean roof height, tilt angle, and rail alloy (if you are unsure, use the 6063 alloy values). For mean roof heights less than 30 feet, use Table 1 A/2A for tilt angles less than 19 degrees, Table 1B/2B for tilt angles between 20 and 36 degrees, Table IC/2C for tilt angles between 37 and 45 degrees, and Table 1D/2D for tilt angles between 46 and 60 degrees. For mean roof heights between 31 and 60 feet use Table 1 E/2E for tilt angles less than 19 degrees, Table 1 F/2F for tilt angles between 20 and 36 degrees, Table 1G/2G for tilt angles between 37 and 45 degrees, and Table 1H/2H for tilt angles between 46 and 60 degrees. 2. Determine the wind and snow load for the project site from the building department. Make certain to use 2012 IBC wind Loads. Locate the wind load in the table across top rows and the snow load down the left columns to find corresponding maximum rail span. 3. For snow loads, column Pg equals the ground snow. 4. Shaded cells require application of an edge zone adjustment (details to follow).

Only connect modules of the same type and the same power class. Safety Factor During normal operation, a module may generate a greater current and/or highervoltage than that determined under standardized test conditions. Please use a safety factor of 1.25 for the following: • Calculating the voltage measurement values (v.) of components • Calculating the current measurement values (Ix) of conductors • Sizing of control systems connected to the outlets of the solar modules 4 Please follow the valid national guidelines for the installation of electrical systems. Series Connection Connection of modules in series is only permitted up to the maximum system voltage as listed in the applicable data sheet of all the relevant modules to be installed. 4 Take into account all possible operating situations and all relevant technical norms and regulations when designing the system. It has to be ensured that the maximum system voltage, including all necessarysafety margins, is not exceeded. 4 Take the voltage I imit of the inverter into account when determining the maximum number of modules in the string, Parallel Connection Modules may be damaged by the occurrence of reverse currents (caused by module defects, ground leaks, or defective Insulation). 4 Ensure that the maximum reverse current load capacity indicated In the data sheet is met. In order to limit reverse currents that may occur, we recommend using the following safety options: 1) Layout with a limited number of parallel connected strings: Without undertaking further current blocking measures, a maximum of two module strings may be operated in parallel on an Inverter or MPP tracker. 2) Layout with string fuses: place fuses for each string of modules at the plus and minus ends. Observe the maximum permitted number of strings as indicated in the specifications provided by the respective string fuse manufacturer and the technical guidelines. NOTE! When installing different product versions, the lowest minimum permitted reverse current load capacity applies.
