IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Building or structures with both utility service and a PV system,
complying with NEC 690.12, shall have a permanent plaque or directory
including the following wording:PHOTOVOLTAIC SYSTEM EQUIPPED
WITH RAPID SHUTDOWN. The term “PHOTOVOLTAIC” may be
replaced with “PV.” The plaque or directory shall be reflective, with all
letters capitalized and having a minimum height of 9.5mm (3/8 in.) in
white on red background.
Attention -The system status indicator shall be installed in a location in
close proximity to the system actuator, where the indication of safe
shutdown can be clearly seen.
This rapid shutdown system is required to be provided with an
actuating device or a status indicator which shall be installed in a
location accessible to first responders, or be connected to an
automatic system which initiates rapid shutdown upon the activation
of a system disconnect or activation of another type of emergency
system.
Additionally, in a prominent location near the actuator device the end
use installation shall be provided with a permanent marking including
the following wording:PHOTOVOLTAIC SYSTEM EQUIPPED WITH
RAPID SHUTDOWN. The term “PHOTOVOLTAIC” may be replaced with

NOTE
A SolarEdge inverter may be installed in a site with a generator. SolarEdge
requires installing a physical or electronic interlock, which will signal to the
inverter when the grid has been disconnected. Interlock procurement,
installation, maintenance and support are the responsibility of the installer.
Damage to the inverter due to incorrect interlock installation or use of an
interlock that is incompatible with the SolarEdge system will render the
SolarEdge warranty invalid.
