Changes in 2023 NEC. If you look up Section 705.13 in the 2023 NEC, you will notice the term Power Control Systems has been replaced with a new term, Energy Management Systems, and it takes you elsewhere in the Code to Section 750.30. Baldassari says this term "kind of takes you further away from what it really does.".
Installation of Solar PV Systems in New Territories Exempted Houses (NTEH) ( commonly known as village houses) should be carried out in accordance with the requirements given in item 5.2. For solar PV system in other private buildings, supporting structure is building …
