Re: [RE-wrenches] Firestone Metal Roof with S-5

Jason, 
Contact Firestone yourself and tell them the roofers claim and if it's true 
then get it in writing. If it's not, get it in writing.

WrenchesOur parent company does roofing and works with firestone, l do not know 
of any such rule BUT its safe to have the roofer do that and everyone is 
protected then why not. Remember it all about the customer and if they feel 
happy then we all are happy. But thats just me.Jerry.

Subject: [RE-wrenches] Firestone Metal Roof with S-5 

Has anyone run into Firestone brand metal roofing? A local roofer is trying to 
tell my client that the warranty will be void if a solar contractor installs 
S-5 clamps, but they have a different product and if they install it (clamps 
only), it will not void the warranty. For (maybe) obvious reasons I would 
rather not subcontract the clamps to the roofer. He is claiming you must be a 
Firestone approved vendor to keep the warranty intact. I don’t buy it.

Re: [RE-wrenches] 2014 NEC 705-100 (A)

2017-03-22 Thread billbrooks7 
Jay,
 
You need to provide more information. The 2014 NEC is a significant improvement 
in the language related to single-phase inverters on a 3-phase service. To read 
it any other way shows a very large misunderstanding of the language.

It should be much better on the 2014 NEC, not worse. Where do they not get it. 
The old language was used routinely to prevent single-phase inverters on the 
3-phase systems. I wrote the change to the 2014 that greatly improves the 
language.

Bill.

HI All,

I’ve got a client who’s having some issues with the building department. (for 
the 705-11-A  NEC 2014) Now it is true that we in California are now in 2014 
NEC) They are saying that he isn’t allowed to install the 3rd  inverter onto a 
3 phase service ( this system was done in stages, using SMA 3kw for phases 1 
and 2) Now they are being stopped on adding the 3rd.

Anyone ever run into this before?
Any answers?

thanks
