...without a mandatory "Stop" switch co-located with the service meter or main breaker?

How many roof top systems have been installed to date? Many, many, many, many.

OK ,now I am a first responder showing up at a home that is on fire. How do I know whether or not the DC has been installed such that it provided the protections afforded by 690.12? I don't. Because it is not require for systems conforming to 690.12 to look any different to me than those that do not.

So does the "stop" switch become the new "fire fighters club" logo? If you have the switch the FD will save your home, if you don't they will let it burn down, even if you have a 690.12 compliant system that does not include an "initiator switch"?
