If installing the system on a metal roof, you must ensure that the system is bonded to the roof in compliance with grounding methods as required by the AHS. + This section is intended to provide a well-rounded understanding of all aspects of grounding, disconnect y requirements, and NEC compliance for SunPower Equinox; it contains excerpts from the SunPower AC Module Safety and Installation Instructions (#51744), as well as references to the applicable NEC Articles and UL Standards. % SunPower AC Modules meet all current code requirements for rapid shutdown as defined in NEC 690.12 Rapid ` 'Shutdown of PV Systems on Bdildings. As part of the UL 1741 listing of the SunPower AC Module product being utility- I interactive, upon turning off the AC disconnect to de -energize the circuit to the AC Modules on the roof, each AC, _ Module output will shut off within 0.16 seconds to comply with,IEEE 1547. In this manner, all wiring leaving each AC r Module complies with the controlled conductor limits in 690.12. The SunPower AC Module is one of the components that electrically bonds all of the metallic non-current - } -carrying components in the system,.and is Listed to UL 1741. ' 'Only AC equipment roundin requirements apply when installing Listed AC modules to racking that is Listed to ! UL 2703—neither DC system grounding requirements (GEC) nor DC equipment grounding requirements (EGC) apply. The equipment grounding conductor (EGC) that's built into and Listed with the AC Module cable system is sized appropriately and meets all of the AC equipment grounding.requirements for the system. The AC dedicated branch circuit wiring from the distribution panel to the array must include an equipment grounding conductor (EGC) in the same raceway or cable as the AC circuit conductors. This EGC must be connected to the green conductor of the transition cable, which is part of the AC module cable system. The AC Module connectors (plugs and receptacles) are rated for disconnect. ' If a module is removed from a circuit (for service or replacement, for example), remember that the AC Module cable system is daisy -chained and that therefore you must first disconnect all power and then M Document #518101 'RevA 17 • ' SunPower Proprietary install a temporary EGC to bridge the gap by inserting an AC extension cable or other means, in order to C 1. maintain effective ground continuity to subsequent modules. Disconnecting a module from the circuit G ' ' removes voltage and might also remove ground from the other downstream modules in the circuit. G Extreme care should betaken to ensure that no other energized sources are adjacent to these G ungrounded modules. G • A grounding electrode conductor (GEC) for the module or array is not required because the DC power is internal C . to the AC Module. The existing AC GEC at the premises or structure utility service serves as the NEC -required GEC �f for the AC Module system. C • The AC cable grounding path has been tested by an NRTL, and its electrical continuity from the AC cable ground C pin to the module frame has been evaluated as part of the AC Module Listing. r • The AC Module interconnecting cable system provides an internal EGC for grounding the AC Modules. • Neither the AC Modules nor the array require a GEC. The AC Module must be connected to a dedicated AC branch circuit with an appropriately sized equipment grounding conductor (EGQ. The EGC must be connected to G a grounding electrode using the existing premises wiring system, typically originating at the building service C, . entrance or service panel. • The AC interconnecting cable system attached to each module's microinverter is fully insulated and includes an G internal EGC. The grounding pin is longer than the others in the plug, providing a "first to make, last to break" connection sequence. r • The green conductor in the AC cable is connected to the EGC from the utility dedicated branch circuit ("the r building ground"). • The AC ground wire inside the microinverter terminates on the microinverter chassis with a bolted connection, r r' and is environmentally sealed. �f • The microinverter chassis is bonded to the module frame with stainless steel hardware to provide ground continuity to the module frame. G, Each SunPower AC Module includes a factory -integrated microinverter (MI) that does not require a neutral wire to be connected to it for operation or for compliance with IEEE 1547. Power produced is conducted on the E L1-L2 240 VAC or 208 VAC grid connection. Utility interactive functions in the MI circuitry have been evaluated to IEEE 1547, and use the ground wire instead of the neutral to determine grid values. This functionality is part of its UL Listing. C, This product must only be connected to a single-phase system (LA) of a premises with the neutral (N) bonded to ground at the service entrance per code. (The MI does not reference the N to ground internally, therefore this reference must be accomplished only at the service entrance.) Ensure that the installation site has a high-quality N -to -ground reference at the service. The MI determines L -N voltages based on measuring internally �. from L to the MI chassis, which is connected to the EGC.

Document #509506 Rev 8 MAFFEI STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING 11 August 2014 Guillaume Carre " SunPower Corporation 1414 Harbour Way South Richmond,.CA 94804 Subject: SunPower Invisimount Design Tool Structural Calculations Dear Guillaume, Per your request, we are pleased to present the findings from our review and testing of SunPower's Invisimount Design Tool, an online tool that: • Evaluates structural design loads on SunPower Invisimount solar arrays • . Evaluates the maximum allowable spacing of attachments of the system to the roof to resist design loads • Estimates, the bill of materials for specific projects to assist with ordering parts from SunPower SCOPE OF THE TOOL Invisimount by SunPower is a solar panel support system for installing solar photovoltaic arrays on sloped roofs of buildings. Typically such buildings are residential with shingle or tile roofs. Each row or column of modules is supported by two rails, which are attached to the roof structure. The number and spacing of 'attachments.. to the roof structure can vary depending on, for example, structural loads at a particular site, the type of attachment hardware used, and spacing of the building rafters. The attached "Engineering Basis of Calculations" describes the scope of the Invisimount Design Tool, its calculation procedures, and assumptions for use. SCOPE OF OUR REVIEW Maffei Structural Engineering collaborated with SunPower on the development of the Invisimount Design Tool, including the following tasks related to structural calculations: • Provided documents describing applicable building code formulas and the calculation procedure to be implemented by SunPower's programming team • Worked with SunPower and the programming team during implementation to answer questions related to structural calculations and test the functionality of the tool 415.329.6100 a www.maffei-structure.com 148 Hermosa Avenue Oakland, CA 94618 s MAFFEI STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING . 11 August 2014 SunPower Invisimount Design Tool Structural Calculations Page 2 Performed independent calculations for six example project sites, plus spot checks of other potential project conditions, to compare to the structural design loads and load combinations calculated by the tool to act on the arrays, rails, and attachments to the roof structure. For all of the examples that we checked, the loads and load combinations calculated by the tool are consistent with our independent calculations in accordance with the structural design standard ASCE 7-10 Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures. Performed independent calculations for ten example project sites, plus spot checks of other potential project conditions, to compare to the bill of materials estimated by the tool. For all of the examples that we checked, the quantities of parts estimated by the tool are the same as the quantities from our independent calculations, or within a reasonable tolerance. The attached "Engineering Basis of Calculations" describes the procedure that the tool uses for estimating the bill of materials. SUMMARY OF FINDINGS To an extent consistent with the scope of our review, our professional opinion is that the Invisimount Design Tool calculates structural design loads on the solar arrays, and maximum allowable spacing of attachments to the roof structure, that are consistent with the standards and procedures described in the attached "Engineering Basis of Calculations," including ASCE 7-10 Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures, the 2012 International Building Code., and the 2013 California -Building Code. DESIGN RESPONSIBILITY The Invisimount Design Tool is intended to be used under the responsible charge of a registered design professional' where required by the authority having jurisdiction. In all cases, the tool should be used under the direction of a design professional with sufficient structural engineering knowledge and experience to be able to: • Evaluate whether the tool is applicable to the project, based on the "Engineering Basis of Calculations" document and the characteristics of the project, and • Understand -and determine the appropriate values for all input parameters of the tool. Results of the tool should be checked against the design professional's judgment. Excerpts from standards such as ASCE 7-10 are presented in the tool as pointers to the standard and are not intended to diminish the user's responsibility to consult the applicable figures and sections of the standard directly. The user or design professional in responsible charge assumes full design responsibility. The tool does not check the capacity of the building structure to support the loads imposed on the building by the array, such as bending strength of roof rafters spanning between supports.

Calculations are based on user input and the assumptions described below. The tool references the following sections of ASCE 7-10: • Wind loads are calculated per Section 30.4 "Part 1: Low -Rise Buildings" (not the Part 2 "Simplified" method). • Snow loads are calculated per Chapter 7. • Seismic loads are calculated per Chapter 13. The force Fp is applied horizontally in the down-slope direction, concurrently with the downward vertical force 0.2SDs4Vp. • Combinations of loads are calculated using "Strength Design' (LRFD) per Section 2.3. Procedure for determining attachment spacing Per ASCE 7-10 Figure 30.4-2, the tool calculates the dimension, a, of roof wind zones near roof edges, ridges, and corners, where design wind pressure is greater than in the middle of the roof. For each roof wind zone, the tool determines the maximum allowable spacing of attachments to resist the design loads, and the maximum allowable cantilever of a rail and module beyond the last attachment in a row. Spacing is based on the strength of structural components of the Invisimount system and the specified attachment type. Table 1 shows an example of spacing requirements calculated by the tool. Figure 1 illustrates the definition of attachment spacing and cantilever distance on a portion of an example array. • Bending strength of aluminum rails is calculated according to the Aluminum Design Manual 2010 S--ction B.3.2.1 (LRFD). • The strength of attachments to the roof is from product information provided by the attachment manufacturer. Where capacities are given by the manufacturer in terms of Allowable Stress Design (ASD) loads, allowable loads are multiplied by 1.5 for use with strength design (LRFD) load combinations. • The tool determines attachment spacing and estimates quantities for the attachments listed in the "attachment type" field. If other attachment hardware is used instead, you as the Registered Design Professional are responsible for determining the amount and spacing of attachments and verifying that the attachment hardware complies with building code requirements and with the Invisimount system. • The maximum allowable attachment spacing is calculated by checking demand/capacity ratios for bending in the rail and tension, compression, and shear on attachments for all considered load combinations. The reported maximum allowable spacing is the greatest spacing, rounded down to the nearest 3 -inch increment, for which all demand/capacity ratios are less than or equal to 1.0. • The maximum allowable cantilever of a rail beyond the last attachment in a row is taken as 1/3 the maximum allowable attachment spacing. • For attachment types that attach to rafters, the spacing selected for design is equal to the maximum allowable spacing, rounded down to a multiple of the rafter spacing. Spacing is limited to 6 ft. maximum. • The tool calculates loads on rails and attachments assuming that each module is installed centered over a pair of rails as in Figure 2(a). In cases where one rail is closer to the midpoint of the module as in Figure 2(b), for the final design of the array, you as the Registered Design Professional may need 11>Augdst 2014 t , ISI �4 F F E I {, . ♦+•. r ; i 'SunPower Invisimount Design Tool - - ;r " Structural Calculations STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING i �'r'. ..,.Page;S.`•, to perform additional calculations to evaluate whether the spacing and number' -of attachments calculated by the tool' is adequate for the project condition. For example, for a uniformly -loaded r i • module in -Figure 2(b), -Rail Y would have load increased by a factor of (L — 2X)/(L — X ; Y) compared' a to .the condition in Figure 2(a). Iri this case, the user can override the quantity of attachments in the; ; bill of materials if needed.

' wind zones.of the building roof: y ` For the purpose of estimating the,number of attachments in a bill of materials, if any portion of a module, is located in roof wind zone 2 or 3, the tool assumes that the attachment spacing for that entire module, corresponds to the worst case wind zone. This is a conservative assumption in order to simplify the user f ' interface of the tool and to avoid underestimating the number of required parts. For the final design of.the . array, , you as the Registered - Design Professional . may, choose to do more specific, calculations to determine whether fewer attachments can be used. For example, in the case of a module where only one 'rail.(and half or,less of the module area) is in zone,2, with the remainder of the module in zone 1, it may , s be appropriate to use zone 2 attachment spacing for the rail in zone 2," and zone 1 spacing for the rail in zone 1. In this case, the user can override the quantity of attachments in the bill of materials if desired. .` � , • . Tau � z:. � - r ' MODULE, TYP. ' RAIL, TYP. ATTACHMENT, TYP. ; WNWO .ROOF.

For one of these figures to be applicable, the height h must be less than or equal to 60 ft, and the building must be either a gable roof with slope less than or equal to 7 degrees, a gable/hip roof with slope 8 to 27 degrees, or a gable roof with slope 28 to 45 degrees. See ASCE 7-10 Section 30.4 for details. • For wind on solar arrays, the internal pressure coefficient GCp; = 0 per ASCE 7-10 Table 26.11-1. • For snow loads, the thermal factor C, = 1.2 for the array per ASCE 7-10 Table 7-3. This applies to "unheated and open air structures" and is assumed to be appropriate for solar arrays that are separated from the roof. • For snow loads, the exposure factor C, = 0.9 for the array per ASCE 7-10 Table 7-2. This applies to roofs that are "fully exposed," meaning that there are no obstructions such as "terrain, higher structures, or trees," parapets, or other rooftop equipment of a height and proximity that would cause increased snow buildup on the array. The "fully exposed" assumption may not be appropriate for situations where obstructions are located "within a distance of 10ho" of the roof, "where ho is the height of the obstruction above the roof level. If the only obstructions are a few deciduous trees that are leafless in winter, the `fully exposed' category" is appropriate (ASCE 7-10 p. 30). See ASCE 7-10 Table 7-2 for details. • For snow loads, the slope factor CS for the array per ASCE 7-10 Figure 7-2 is calculated assuming the array is an "unobstructed slippery surface" that will allow snow to slide off the eaves. This assumption may not' be appropriate for cases where snow is prevented from sliding off the array because of valleys in the roof, for example. See ASCE 7-10 Section 7.4. • For seismic loads, Site Class = D per ASCE 7-10 Section 11.4.2. See ASCE 7-10 Section 11.4 for details and other site conditions. • The seismic component importance factor Ip = 1.0 for the solar array per ASCE 7-10 Section 13.1.3. • For seismic loads, the component response modification factor Rp = 1.5, and the component amplification factor ap = 1.0, per ASCE 7-10 Table 13.5-1 or 13.6-1. This assumption is consistent with recommendations for other types of rooftop solar arrays in the guideline SEAOC PV 1 Structural Seismic Requirements and Commentaryfor Rooftop Solar Photovoltaic Arrays.

Product Description i� Loadcenters are enclosures specifically designed to house the branch circuit breakers and wiring required to distribute power to individual circuits. They contain either a main breaker when used at the service entrance point or, a main lug when used as a sub -panel to add circuits to existing service. The main breaker protects the main entire panel and can be used as a service disconnect. The branch breakers protect the wires leading to individual electrical loads such as fixtures and outlets. Features, Benefits and Functions Loadcenter Construction Eaton's Type BR loadcenters have standard tin-plated aluminum bus with a limited availability of copper bus. The sum of the handle ratings connected to any stab is limited to 150A maximum on the 100 and 125A loadcenters, and 200A on loadcenters with 150A or higher main bus. NEMA Type 1 boxes or enclosures are manufactured from galvanized steel. Raintight boxes are manufactured from galvanized steel, then finished using an electrostatic powder coat, baked urethane paint process. Neutrals Eaton Type CH loadcenters feature two types of neutrals: Insulated/Bondable Split Neutral Panels are supplied with split insulated neutrals with an insulated cross strap. For service entrance applications, the neutral must be bonded by using the bonding strap supplied with the panel. For non -service entrance (sub - panel) applications, the panel may be installed with the bonding strap not connected to the neutral. Separate ground bars must be used on non -service entrance panels. Insulated/Bondable Single Neutral Panels are supplied with a single insulated neutral. For service entrance applications, all that is required to bond the neutral is to loosen the bonding screw and the neutral screw directly beside it, insert the bonding strap into the neutral bar, and re - tighten both connections. The single neutral can be moved by the contractor to the other side of the panel, if desired. ,When used as a service entrance panel, unused neutral connections may be used for the termination of equipment grounds. For non - service entrance (sub -panel) applications, the panel may be installed with the bonding strap not connected to the neutral. Separate ground bars must be used on non -service entrance panels. . Grounds In service entrance applications where the neutral is bonded, unused neutral holes may be used for terminating ground conductors. In sub -feed panels, the neutral must be isolated (non -bonded), and ground wires must be terminated on a separate ground bar. The insulated/bondable single/split neutral panels have sufficient terminations for both ground and neutral conductors. The insulated/ bondable single split neutral panels are supplied with a separate factory -installed ground bar if the catalog number contains a "G." If not, a separate ground bar should be installed. Insulated/ Bondable Single Neutral panels are supplied without a ground bar (unless otherwise noted), and ground bar kits if needed must be purchased separately. Neutral and Ground Terminals The standard terminals on grounds and neutrals are rated to accept (3) #14-#10 Cu/AI or (1) #14-4, provided the cables terminated are of the same material. For larger cables, add-on neutral lugs may be ordered from the accessories on Page V1 -T1-60. Note: NEC allows only one current -carrying conductor per hole on neutrals unless otherwise noted. Bottom Fed Loadcenters For single-phase 225A and below loadcenters that are bottom fed, a standard panel can be rotated 180 degrees to allow straight -in wiring of power cables to the main terminals. Because the main circuit breaker handle operates horizontally, the orientation of the main circuit breaker handle is consistent with the requirements of NEC 2008 Article 240.81. Gutter Splicing Loadcenters are not UL listed as wiring troughs. Therefore, gutter splicing of riser cables to tap off to the main device is not permitted. Refer to NEC 2008 Article 312.8. Fire Rating Due to the numerous openings in both loadcenter boxes and trims, they should not be mounted in firewalls. There is no approved method for sealing the enclosures for this application. V1 -T1-42 Volume 1—Residential and Light Commercial CA08100002E—January2013 www.eaton.com Date Code The date of manufacture of each loadcenter is printed on the outside of the carton as well as inside the loadcenter. On the carton, the date code is printed on the end carton label. In the loadcenter, the date code is located on the small white label located on the right side wall (with the main device on top). The date code is in the following format: F # # # &. The "F" is the numeric code for the Lincoln, IL plant, and the three numbers are the year and week of manufacturing, e.g., 023. The "!" sign at the end signifies the decade of the 2010. Therefore, the date code F023& would indicate that the product was manufactured in the 23rd week of 2010. The 1980s are represented by the "+" sign and the 1990s are represented by a "_" at the end of the code. Surge Protectors Complete home surge protection is available in multiple options, including a factory -installed option that provides the highest level of surge protection in a residential design.

Recently, these fire resistance standards were expanded to include solar equipment as part of the roof system. Specifically, this requires the modules, mounting hardware; and roof covering to be tested together as a system to ensure they achieve the same, .fire rating as the original roof covering. ' Adoption of these new requirements will begin in California in 2015 and extend to ' the rest of the country in 2016. IronRidge Certification ' In August 2014, IronRidge was the first company to receive a Class A Fire Rating— the highest possible rating—from Intertek 'Group plc., a'Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory. IronRidge Roof Mount products were tested on flat and sloped roofs in accordance with the new UL 1703 & UL 2703 test standards. The testing evaluated the system's ability, to resist flame spread, burning material and; structural damage to the roof. Refer to the table below to determine the requirements for achieving a Class A Fire Rating on your next project. • 1 i Class A Fire'Rafing ' ; Test Setup r " i Solar Modules Solar modules are given a Type classification based on their •�., materials and construction.

Frequently Asked Questions What is a "module type"? What attachments and flashings are deemed compatible with Class A? The new UL1703 standard introduces the concept of a , PV module type, based on 4 construction parameters Attachments and their respective flashings are not and 2 fire performance parameters. The purpose of constituents of the rating at this time. All code -compliant this classification is to certify mounting systems without flashing methods are acceptable from a fire rating needing to test it with every module. standpoint. What roofing materials are covered? What mounting height is acceptable? All fire rated roofing materials are covered within this UL fire testing was performed with a gap of 5", which is certification including composition shingle, clay and considered worst case in the standard. Therefore, the cement tile, metal, and membrane roofs. rating is applicable to any module to roof gap. { What if I have a Class C roof, but the jurisdiction Am I required to install skirting to meet the fire now requires Class A or B? code? Generally, older roofs will typically be "grandfathered No, IronRidge achieved a Class Afire rating without any in", and will not require re -roofing. However, if 50% or'. additional racking components. more of the rcofing material is replaced for the solar installation the code requirement will be enforced. What determines Fire Classification? Where is the new fire rating requirement code listed? Fire Classification refers to a fire -resistance rating system for roof covering materials based on their ability 2012 IBC: 1509.7.2 Fire classification. Rooftop to withstand fire exposure. (mounted photovoltaic systems shall have the same fire classification as the roof assembly required by Section Class A - effective against severe fire exposure 11505.

The general requirement for roofing systems in the IBC. refers to a Class C fire rating. Class A or B is required for. The IronRidge Class A rating will not diminish the fire areas such as Wildland Urban Interface areas (WUI) and rating of the roof, whether Class A, B, or C. for very high fire severity areas. Many of these areas are ' 'found througl-out the western United States. California What tilts is the tilt mount system fire rated for? has the most Class A and B roof fire rating requirements, due to wild fire concerns.

Taggart, IronRidge Product Development Group Date: Feb 18th, 2016 Re: Structural Design Compliance and Allowable Span Certification for IronRidge Tilt Mount Solar Racking System for Flat Roof Applications The IronRidge Tilt Mount System certified in this letter is for use on flat or low pitched roofs with slopes of no more than 6 degrees from the horizontal. The south side of the Tilt Mount System is supported by the IronRidge South Leg, which includes two pre -assembled aluminum angles. The north side is supported by the IronRidge North Leg, which consists of an aluminum U -foot base and a square 1.5" by 1.5" cross-section vertical leg. Both the South and North Legs shall'be connected to roof attachments or directly anchored to underlying roof members via use of appropriate fasteners. IronRidge XR Rails run east and west and are used on both the north and south sides of the Tilt Mount System to provide direct support for solar modules. XR Rails fasten to the North and South Legs using hardware found in the Tilt Leg Kits. The section views of the Tilt Mount System included in Exhibit are for illustrative reference. The IronRidge Tilt Mount System is designed to accommodate module tilts ranging from 4 degrees to 30 degrees relative to the roof's surface. All components of the IronRidge Tilt Mount System are to be installed in a workmanlike manner, following generally accepted standards of construction and industry best practices,.and as described in'the Roof Mount Installation Manual (found on the IronRidge website). The IronRidge Tilt Mount System was developed in compliance with the structural requirements of the following reference standards, and certified to the same standards for the load conditions listed in the allowable span charts included in this letter: • ASCE/SEI 7-10 Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures • 2012 International Building Code • 2013 California'Building Code _ • 2005 Aluminum Design Manual The allowable span charts included in this letter provide the maximum span of a Tilt Mount System allowed under a particular load condition. Each span chart covers the chosen rail and wind exposure category, and includes the entire range of allowable snow and wind loads, roof zones 1-3, and tilt angles in 5 degree increments going up to 30 degrees. , The span charts shall be used when the following conditions are met: 1. The underlying roof pitch is 6 or less relative to the horizon and the maximum module tilt (the angle between module and roof surface) is 30 or less. 2. The Tilt Mount System is designed as a Risk Category II structure as defined by ASCE 7-10 Table 1.5-1. 3. The building height (the distance from the grade to the building eave) is 30 feet. . 4.

Tilt Mount System Certification Letter- 1 The parameters and adjustments used in the span charts are defined as the following: 1. The tilt used in the span chart shall be calculated as the angle between the solar module surface and he roof surface. 2. For any tilt not listed in the span charts, but no greater than 30°, the user can round up to the next higher 50 increment (e.g. if one is designing to a tilt angle of 120, use the row for 150 in the span table.) except for the tilts between 250 and 270, in which the user shall use the results of 250. 3. Wind speed selection shall conform to ASCE 7-10 Fig. 26.5-1A (Risk Category II wind). No special wird topographic features are included and the topographic coefficient (KZt) is taken as 1.0. 4. The snow load used in the charts is the ground snow load and shall conform to ASCE 7-10 Fig. 7.1. No roof snow drift or unbalanced snow load conditions are included. 5. Roof zone size and definition conforms to ASCE 7-10 Fig. 30.4-2A. 6. It has been calculated that the seismic load is not in control of the Tilt Mount System allowable span compared to the wind or snow loads, or their combinations. 7. Allowable span length in the charts may be multiplied by a factor of 1.08 if the rails are continuous over a minimum of three spans. 8. An array to roof clearance of 2 inches minimum must be provided. 9. The maximum cantilever allowed at the end of a rail is 40% of the span shown in the tables included in this .letter. 10. No splices are allowed in the end spans or the middle 1/3 of interior spans.
