Question 6
An installer is hired to troubleshoot a 10-year-old roottop system with open-circuitvoltage of 300V. The ground-fault detection (GFD) device has tripped. The insulation on the exposed source circuit cables has deterlorated with multiple cracks and has no flexibility. Which concern is the MOST likely safely issue when servicing this array?
Question 7
In the middle of a winter day, the data acquisition system for a ground-mounted PV system with large central inverters sends an email alert that system performance is at 50% based on irradiance and temperature performance calculations. No inverters are completely offline. The closed technician is a 4-hour drive from the site, and there are no cameras on site. Which is the BEST response to this situation?
Question 8
On a PV system larger than 100kw, which PV array design will provide the HIGHEST degree of performance monitoring.
Granularity, and ease of troubleshooting performance issues?

Question 9
A ground-mounted PV system operating with an open-critical voltage of 550V is in a public park. Which installation procedure will meet NEC requirements for protecting the public from potential electric shock?
Question 10
A homeowner is concerned that a 6kWdc PV system might be experiencing a performance issue. The homeowner has noticed what appears to be declining production. The installer analyzes the following data acquisition system (DAS) results for each year since the installation:

Given the data, which is the MOST likely conclusion to draw?
