CIRCUITS INSPECTED
GENERAL
Entire system has been inspected to the requirements of IEC 60364-6 and an inspection report to meet the requirements of IEC
60364-6is attached
DC system designed, specified and installed to the requirements of IEC 60364 in general and IEC 60364-7-712 in particular.
ERFEFRGGE
DC components rated for continuous DC operation
DC components rated for current and voltage maxima (Voc stc corrected for local temperature range and module type; current
at Isc stc x 1,25 - IEC 60364-7-712.433 :2002)
Protection by use of class II or equivalent insulation adopted on the DC side - yes / no (class II preferred - IEC
60364-7-712.413.2 :2002)
PV string cables, PV array cables and PV DC main cables have been selected and erected so as to minimize the risk of earth
faults and short-circuits (IEC 60364-7-712.522.8.1 :2002).
Wiring systems have been selected and erected to withstand the expected external influences such as wind, ice formation,
temperature and solar radiation (IEC 60364-7-712.522.8.3 :2002)
Systems without string over-current protective devices: module reverse current rating (Ir) is greater than possible reverse
current.
Systems without string over-current protective devices: String cables sized to accommodate the maximum combined fault
current from parallel strings (IEC 60364-7-712.433 :2002)
Systems with string over-current protective devices: over-current protective devices are correctly specified to local codes or to
the PV module manufacturer's instructions - to NOTE of IEC 60364-7-712.433.2 :2002.
DC switch disconnector fitted to the DC side of the inverter (IEC 60364-7-712.536.2.2.5 :2002).
If blocking diodes are fitted, verify that their reverse voltage rating is at least 2 x Voc stc of the PV string in which they are fitted
(IEC 60364-712-512.1.1 :2002)
If one of the DC conductors is connected to earth, verify that there is at least simple separation between the AC and DC sides
and that earth connections have been constructed so as to avoid corrosion (IEC 60364-712-312.2 :2002)

If an RCD is installed and the PV inverter is without at least simple separation between the AC side and the DC side: is the
RCD type B according IEC 60755 amendment 2 (IEC 60364-7-712.413.1.1.1.2 :2002 and Figure 712.1).
Area of all wiring loops been kept as small as possible (IEC 60364-7-712.444.4 :2002)
Where installed, equipotential bonding conductors are laid parallel to and bundled with the DC cables.
Isolation and switching devices been connected such that PV installation is wired to the "load" side and the public supply to the
"source" side (IEC 60364-7-712.536.2.2.1 :2002)
All DC junction boxes (PV generator and PV array boxes) carry a warning label indicating that active parts inside the boxes are
fed from a PV array and may still be live after isolation from the PV inverter and public supply.
