Pv Installation Labels & CoC Requirements

Featured Replies

Greetings All and Happy Holidays. Wasn't sure where to post this. When getting a CoC (Certificate of Compliance), I seem to have noticed a few installations that don't have labels on the installations at points such as:

  • The inverter
  • The battery disconnect
  • Some DB boards
  • Isolators
  • The Pv Combiner box
  • Generator changeover switch etc

Is there anyone who may have knowledge of what the regulations are with Eskom as well as general various municipalities in SA? In the UK, these requirements are quite stringent in some counties and in Zimbabwe, the local authority is quite lax except "sometimes" when it comes to having a Generator changeover switch or DB Board. I've posted some labels with this thread. Your thoughts forumites.

If I may I will say have a close look at the installs of Steve87 and TaliaB. 

Their examples show how things should be done. 

Both of them always helpful.
