. EXPEDITED PER^IIT PROCESS FOR SNLALL-SCALE P\'S\-5TEN,lS S IANDARD 5IRtsr., j\: tErrr The information in this guideline is intended ro help local jurisd ictions and contractors idenrih/ when Pv system installations arc :iimplc, nccding only n basic review and when an insraliation is more complex. Ir is likely rhar 50 % -75 % of all residendal systems will comply with lhese simple criteria. For proJects that farl ro meet the simple criteria, resolurion sreps have been suggested to provide as a path ro permit approval. Reqrireil InJoflndtiofl for Pernit: t Sire plan showing localion of major components on the prooerrv This drawinq need not be exacrlv to scale, but ir should represenr relative locarion of components at site (see supplied example site plan). PV arrays on dwellings with a 5 perimeter space at ridge and sides may not need separate frre service review. 2.
