Step 2 Electrical Revie", of PV Systzm (Calculations for Electrical Diugram) ln order for a PV system to be considered for an expedited permit process, the fouowing must apply: 1. Pv modules- utili[y-interaclive invefters, and combiner boxes are idenrihed for use in PV syscems. 2 lhe PV array is composed of 4 series strings or less per inverter. J.
