ExpEDITED PrRr'rrr Pir.ocr'ss FoR SMALL-5cALE PV SysrEN,rs 5 TAN DARD S IRIN.; S\'STEAI The information in rhis guideline is intended ro help Iocal jurisdictions and conrractors idenriry when PV system installations arc simplc, nccding only n basic review and when an insmllation is more complex. It is likely rhat 50 % -75 % of all residendal systems will comply with these simple crirena. For projects thal farl Lo meet the simple criteria, resoiution srcps have been suggested to provide as a path to permit approval. Required t4formatiot Jo" Pennit: 1 SLte plan showing locadon of major componenrs on the propeny. This drawine need nor be exactly to scale. but ir should represenr relative location of components at site (see supplied example site plan). PV arrays on dwellings wilh a f perimeter space at ridge and sides may nor need separate frre service review. 2.
