James Carr's Solar Journey: No Obstacle Too Big | PPM Solar Spotlight
👋 Meet James Carr, a Gainesville local with a passion for security, communications, and sustainability. Facing a hefty $1000 monthly electric bill and a challenging home layout, James was determined to find a solar solution that worked for him.
🙌 After meeting with various firms, only PPM Solar stepped up to design a custom solar system tailored to James's unique needs, combining rooftop and ground installations.
💸💸💸 The first phase cut James's bills to $400, and phase two promises net-zero energy status. It's not just a story of cutting costs but also of achieving energy independence.

  • @WatchThisA
    @WatchThisA 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    You spent all this time and energy sealing up your wire input connectors to keep every ounce of water out of the box, then drill two weep holes in it which lets water back in. Theoretically of course, because water doesn't flow uphill. So why all the energy to seal the sockets with caulk?

    • @emptyb9968
      @emptyb9968 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Weep holes are for condensation build up. If you have rain/snow water getting in weep holes are not the solution.

    • @PPMSolar

      That's a great question. It translates from the universal technique we use from installing any strain relief - including those on NEMA 4, and 4X. So it reduces operator error.

  • @myronperish1778
    @myronperish1778 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    couple of issues I have firstly you need to use no-ox on all your connections, secondly your ground wire should always flow downwards meaning the ground wire should come in from the top of box then to ground lug, and your hole into the roof should be below that. this way ground will always (drain) down. Also never make a tighter circle than a full six inch curve. these are lightening 101 topics. you always always always need no-ox on all connectors because of the different metals the wire, screws and connectors are made of. Aside from that great video

    • @DavincisClock
      @DavincisClock 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Myron Perish :: No-Ox is NOT needed on any of these connections. Both DC PV wire and THHN wire are copper, NOT aluminum where No-Ox WOULD be needed. IF and only IF metals on screws were dissimilar to equipment then scrape paint and apply nickel metal hydride to area of connection but likelihood of corrossion is also mitigated as these are typically installed under array with water tight seals plus weep holes strategically drilled out on bottom in the video demonstration and the screws used are the ones that came with the soladeck. Ground is fine here as the path of least resistance is a wire of greater size and comes out bottom of soladeck(best practice) then travels with THHN to either service through inverter in this scenario or to another soladeck if strings are on different roofs that call for that in the design. I have no clue what you're referring to when mentioning a 6in curve but based on your other issues that are NOT issues; I'd bet that is wrong too. Hope this helps clear up any confusion.

    • @pilotguy13
      @pilotguy13 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      The instructions show 3 fasten points INSIDE the box. So I don’t think there’s any issue with this install. They actually don’t even mention screws outside the box. Great video

  • @garrettturrell1008
    @garrettturrell1008 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Should be fine without the bond bushing since the connector is not in a Concentric KO

    • @DavincisClock
      @DavincisClock 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Code requires both wire be grounded and equipment be grounded and bonded.

  • @b_a_c_k_s_t_a_y2685
    @b_a_c_k_s_t_a_y2685 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Why the bonding bushing? The Soladeck has a ground lug and a lock nut would bond the EMT to the case if you remove the paint.

    • @justinhiner3782
      @justinhiner3782 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      You must use a grounding lock ring or grounding bushing on one side of an metallic conduit

    • @emptyb9968
      @emptyb9968 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Nec 250.92 is the relevant code I believe, but because this is NOT a GEC, but rather an EGC, and the knockouts are not concentric or eccentric, I agree with you that a grounding bushing is not required.

  • @robertlachance3609
    @robertlachance3609 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Nice install. Missed the crimp for continuous bond between the 6 AWG bare copper and the stranded copper EGCs. Ground lugs won't count as irreversible, just like split lugs. Otherwise, super clean install.

    • @mattpowers1759
      @mattpowers1759 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I believe you don't need the EGC on the DC side to be irreversibly crimped, just the GEC on the AC side. But there is an exception for bus bars to count as a continuous bond also.

    • @jdecker9834
      @jdecker9834 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I don't think there's a code requirement for the EGC to be continuous like there is for GEC. That's why you can have equipment bonding jumpers throughout the EGC end to end. Also, since the 2017 code removed most of the language for a required solar GEC unless "solidly grounded", technically I'm not sure those continuous connections by middle stripping the green ground wire are needed by code anymore, even though it's still a best practice.

    @CovenantSolarTech 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Looks like an excellent installation! I've used the Sunny Island before and it truely is top of the line! I would like to say your description of the battery capacity was a little misleading. The SI operates at 48volts so you must have either 2 strings or 3 strings of the 225AH batteries. That would mean the system is 450Ah or at best 675Ah. An easier way to describe it would be 450Ah at 48V or 21.6kwh of battery capacity. ( 450 * 48=21600) Still a very good capacity for a for a home.
