. EXPEDITED PERMIT PROCESS FOR SMALL-SCALE PV SYSTEMS STANDARD STRING SYSTEM The info?mation in rhis Euideline is intended to help localjurisdic ons and contractors identify when PV system installations are simple, needing only a basic review and when an insrallation is more cornplex. Ir is likely that 50 % -75% of all systems will cornply wirh these sirnplc criteria.
