I thought I remember hearing that if I run the charged wires from the PV
invertor through my attic then they need to be in metal conduit. This
makes sense to me because the fireman etc. don't want to get shocked by
powered wires coming from the PV system when they are ripping out the
ceiling.
But this seems to imply that I also can't tie the PV invertor output into a
subpanel anywhere. Since now all the wires coming out of that subpanel
would also need to be in conduit now. Both coming and going wires.
So am I right that PV systems all pretty much need to be tied into the main
panel? This would kill any chance of me installing more than one
independent system on several detached buildings I have that have power run
to them. I was previously thinking a 2KW system now and later a bigger
system on a different roof. Or am I missing something here as usual?
