A minimum 3,800 volt-ampere PV electrical load entry on the Service Load Calculation (Show as a continuous load of 15.8 A). 4. An Electrical Panel Schedule with a 240 volt circuit breaker space labeled "reserved for Photo Voltaic". 4. All construction drawings submitted after June 1, 2010 for one- or two-family dwellings must provide gray water utilization or preparation, Ordinance #10579/11089 revised July 9, 2013.
