PLEASE CALL AT 791-5550 X1106 OR EMAIL AT Linda.Buczynski@tucsonaz.gov IF YOU CARE TO DISCUSS. 1. This is an incomplete review. Product information on BP Panels not legible. Need inverter manual, including all technical and listing information. 2. BP 3160 is indicated on catalogue cut sheet. BP 3150 is indicated on the connection diagram. Please clarify. 3. Sun Tie is indicated on Sheet E2. Trace is indicated on Connection Diagram. Please clarify. 4. South elevation shows what looks like 36 panels. Unnumbered page has in writing "8 panels", "8 panels", and "4 panels", for a total of 20. But there are 9 panels by the wording "8 panels." Roof view shows two rows of 10 panels. Trace Connection Diagram shows 2 parallel rows of 10 panels each. All this needs to be clarified and consistent. 5. Show all boxes, routing and connections in plan view, including how the 4 panels on the garage are connected. 6. Provide a Line Diagram which makes it clear all parallel and series connections. 7. "Volts per row wired in parallel" is stated to be 85V. Trace Connection Diagram indicates 34.5V each, for a 10 panel row. This does not add up. 8.
