..... here I thought agreeing to upgrade was going to be the final touch moving towards having Solar Power.
Wrong!
When it came to the final inspection this time around, the City ones more did NOT okay the setup. What was now the problem, had to do with the "Gas Meter" ... yes the Gas Meter!
Back in the day (2000) when I bought the House, it was legal (Code) to have the Main Electr. Box and the Gas Meter one foot (12") apart. This doesn't fly anymore today. The NEW code is now 24 inch apart from each other.
This now is not my fault by any means! I am not going to Pay one single Dime for the moving of the Gas Meter (this is the cheaper way), as I feel they (the Solar Co.) should have known all this beforehand... when starting with the Job.
They can use the $2000 for upgrading and be nice enough to throw in the moving of the little Gas Meter.............. or they can come and pack all their Stuff back up and haul it away.
I can live with them saying, they try'd to get it passed with 100 amps panel... but they should have known about the new Code that is now in effect. So, lets see what is going to happen.....???
