Howard/ other senior moderator- I've been looking further into the requirement regarding disconnecting PV Solar from the Furrion MPPT 50 Controller BEFORE disconnecting the batteries. It seems this is in fact the case. I started to look at videos and instructions on how to install a Disconnect switch. In the course of this, I came across a video that made a very compelling statement about the requirement to have a breaker installed between the PV wires and the Controller. The reference is NEC 2020 Article 690-13 and -13 section (E). Section E defines that reset switches or other common disconnects aren't qualifying. It needs to be a true circuit breaker. This is above my paygrade! Is there a person you may know at Grand Design that is in a Systems Engineering or a Design role that would be involved in Electrical Code requirements that might be able to comment on the validity of the person making these statements? I did read what the Article said and it seems valid? I'm happy to initiate the inquiry with GD but would you know of a person and their contact info given your involvement in these Forums. Thank you much for inputs.
