1 Executive Summary
Federal OSHA requirements mandate that all electrical equipment in the workplace be “certified” or
subjected to a complete and thorough evaluation before use (29 CFR 1910.303 and 1910.399). Many
state, county and city electrical jurisdictions have similar requirements. A UL Field Evaluation is an
accepted approach to meet this requirement; UL conducts an unbiased, independent assessment of
products at a specific location to essential requirements of applicable product safety standard(s). UL’s
engineering assessment informs regulating authorities who make product and related installation
approval decisions.
Please note that the regulating authority for the final installation site provides final approval of this
equipment and the installation.
This project’s purpose was to evaluate a product that was not Listed or otherwise certified by a testing
laboratory recognized by the authority having jurisdiction. Products undergoing this evaluation process do
not acquire a UL Listing, UL Recognition, or UL Classification. UL has not established factory Follow-Up
Services to determine the conformance of any subsequently produced, relocated, or otherwise altered
product(s) or system(s).
Installation model codes are referenced in this document where necessary to ensure the product can be
properly installed according to the code (e.g. National Electrical Code, NFPA 70).
At the request of Ms. Cynthia Garcia of Solarcity Corp., a Field Evaluation project was initiated.
A Final Evaluation was completed at:
Wayne Luo (JB-9507974-00), 7717 Oak Meadow Ct., Cupertino, CA
Based on the inspection, testing, and evaluation completed, UL considers the product to be suitable for
application of the Field Evaluation Product Mark and for use in accordance with any conditions of
acceptability stated in this report.
2 Conditions of Acceptability
Except where otherwise stated in the product description and evaluation sections of this report, this
evaluation and the application of the Field Evaluated Product Mark is subject to the following Conditions
of Acceptability.
2.1 Except for like-for-like component replacement in the event of component failure, no change or
addition to the product or system shall be made that would alter its construction, operation,
function, layout, source of supply, physical location or operating environment. If such changes or
additions to the product occur, the Field Evaluated Product Mark shall be considered invalid, and a
separate evaluation shall be required to determine compliance with applicable product safety
standards under the changed conditions.
2.2 The completed evaluation and application of the UL Field Evaluated Product Mark by UL does not
assume liability on the part of UL and does not relieve the manufacturer, installer, user, or other
relevant parties of their responsibilities. The product evaluation is based on adherence to sound
engineering practices, and compliance with the applicable product safety standards and installation
code.
2017-709-FE Field Evaluation Services Report Page 4 of 9
2.3 This evaluation considered the risks associated with electric shock, fire, and casualty hazards as
specified in the evaluation section of the report only. No other hazards were evaluated during this
evaluation.
2.4 Unless otherwise stated in the product description, this product was evaluated for installation in an
indoor, dry, normal environment only. The product was not evaluated for installation in any
hazardous classified location as defined in the latest edition National Electrical Code as adopted by
the National Fire Protection Association. The product was not evaluated for installation in an
environment subject to rainfall, water spray, steam, or exposure to any corrosive chemicals that
deteriorate the enclosure or components.
2.5 The UL Field Evaluated Product Mark shall not be considered as equivalent to the UL Listing Mark,
UL Recognized Component Mark, or UL Classified Product Mark. The UL Field Evaluated Product
Mark indicates compliance with the applicable parts of the Standards referenced in Section 3 at the
time the Mark was applied, and considering only the final installation site. The applicable parts
included in the evaluation are the construction review, markings, and those testing protocols that
are non-destructive.

4 Product Description
Equipment Name: Residential Panelboard PV Line Side Tap – JB-9507974-00
Description: The scope of this project is the evaluation of a supply side
connection in an existing residential panelboard for installation of
a photovoltaic (PV) power system(s) at the residence. The PV
output AC power is connected in the existing main electrical
paneboard on the line side of the main (service) disconnect. The
two ungrounded phase conductors and neutral conductor from
the inverter outputs were routed from an outdoor rated Listed
fused disconnect switch into the existing panelboard. The
ungrounded PV phase conductors are connected (spliced) to the
service entrance conductors connected between the load side of
the meter socket and line side of the main circuit breaker serving
as the main (service) disconnect.
The line side tap was made by a Listed insulation piercing
connector, Model UTILCO KUPLER, IPC 4/0 - #6, which was
connected to the 2 AWG service entrance conductors and to the
6 AWG, THWN PV system tap conductors. The terminal was
torqued to 160 in-lb (13.3 ft-lb) by a calibrated torque wrench,
Husky, Model 564394, Serial Number 416070117, Calibration
Date: 07/22/2016.
The UL inspection does not include any PV panel(s), DC
conductors, DC disconnect(s), inverter, raceways (AC or DC),
AC disconnect(s), overcurrent protection of PV system, or
grounding or bonding of PV components, PV system, or
raceways. It also does not include an assessment of the
2017-709-FE Field Evaluation Services Report Page 5 of 9
condition of the existing panelboard, circuit breakers, metering
enclosure, service installation, or existing feeder or branch circuit
wiring installation.
The modifications to the panelboard, as evaluated and
documented in this report, have determined that the panelboard
continues to be compliant with the applicable product safety
standards and that the modifications do not cause the
panelboard to be unsuitable for continued service.

2017-709-FE Field Evaluation Services Report Page 6 of 9
6.1 Critical Components
Method: The following critical components were inspected for evidence of Listing or Recognition
according to UL policies:
- Enclosures - Terminal Blocks
- Wire and Cables
Results: The critical components are Listed or Recognized by a testing laboratory acceptable to UL
according to UL policies.
6.2 Environmental Rating
Method: The design, assembly, and installation of the equipment are examined for suitability with the
environment, electrical supply, and operating conditions of the installation site.

required by the standards referenced in Section 3.0.
6.3 Guarding of Live Parts
Method: The product is visually inspected to ensure that all components were housed in a suitable
enclosure and made effectively inaccessible to unauthorized persons. An articulated finger
probe is used to measure access where necessary. Vent openings are verified to not align
with potential discharge paths of gases expelled from circuit breakers when clearing fault
conditions.
Results: Enclosures prevent contact with moving parts, electrically energized parts, and hot parts.
Enclosures provide an acceptable degree of protection for internal components (according to
the product’s installation environment). All electrically live parts external to the enclosure are
guarded as required by the applicable standards. No electrically hazardous energized parts
are accessible from the exterior of the ultimate enclosure as required by Section 110.27 of
the NEC.
6.4 Mounting of Components
Method: Components that support live parts and uninsulated current carrying parts are secured to
prevent them from turning or shifting in position if such motion may result in a reduction of
spacings below the minimum acceptable values. Friction between surfaces is not acceptable
as a means of preventing shifting or turning of a live part.
Result: Components are mounted such that they are fixed in place and protected from a reduction in
electrical spacings and strain on wiring terminations.
6.5 Wiring and Wiring Methods
Method: All conductors were inspected for Listing or Recognition by a Nationally Recognized Testing
Laboratory according to UL policies. The conductors were examined for proper ratings
(voltage, ampacity, temperature, flexibility, flame, and environmental ratings) as required for
the application. The wiring methods were verified to comply with the applicable standards and
provide proper physical protection, including strain relief, where applicable. The wiring
terminations were inspected for correct application, number of conductors according to their
Listing, and correct ampacity based on temperature ratings.
Results: Details as follows:
6.5.1 Wire Terminations
All wire terminations are suitable for the number and size of conductors installed.
2017-709-FE Field Evaluation Services Report Page 7 of 9
6.5.2 Supply Connections
The supply connection points have proper terminals and identification provided.
6.5.3 Strain Relief
External conductors, cable assemblies entering enclosures, and internal conductors are
secured to prevent strain from being transmitted to terminations.
6.5.4 Wiring Methods
Internal wiring methods are in compliance with the requirements of the applicable standard.
All wiring is routed, secured, and protected from moving parts, external heat sources, and
sharp edges.
7 Test Results
The following tests verified that the product operates within normally expected parameters. Unless stated
otherwise in Section 5.0, all the following items comply with the applicable part(s) of the referenced
standard(s). Field evaluation test methods follow the applicable standards as closely as practical,
considering the limits of a non-laboratory field setting and the need for the equipment to perform its
function following the test.
No Tests Deemed Necessary.

1 Executive Summary
Federal OSHA requirements mandate that all electrical equipment in the workplace be "certified" or
subjected to a complete and thorough evaluation before use (29 CFR 1910.303 and 1910.399). Many
state, county and city electrical jurisdictions have similar requirements. A UL Field Evaluation is an
accepted approach to meet this requirement; UL conducts an unbiased, independent assessment of
products at a specific location to essential requirements of applicable product safety standard(s). UL's
engineering assessment informs regulating authorities who make product and related installation
approval decisions.
Please note that the regulating authority for the final installation site provides final approval of this
equipment and the installation.
This project's purpose was to evaluate a product that was not Listed or otherwise certified by a testing
laboratory recognized by the authority having jurisdiction. Products undergoing this evaluation process do
not acquire a UL Listing, UL Recognition, or UL Classification. UL has not established factory Follow -Up
Services to determine the conformance of any subsequently produced, relocated, or otherwise altered
product(s) or system(s).
Installation model codes are referenced in this document where necessary to ensure the product can be
properly installed according to the code (e.g. National Electrical Code, NFPA 70).
At the request of Ms. Cynthia Garcia of Solarcity Corp., a Field Evaluation project was initiated.
A Final Evaluation was completed at:
• Wayne Luo (JB -9507974-00),7717 Oak Meadow Ct., Cupertino, CA

4 Product Description
Equipment Name: Residential Panelboard PV Line Side Tap — JB -9507974-00
Description: The scope of this project is the evaluation of a supply side
connection in an existing residential panelboard for installation of
a photovoltaic (PV) power system(s) at the residence. The PV
output AC power is connected in the existing main electrical
paneboard on the line side of the main (service) disconnect. The
two ungrounded phase conductors and neutral conductor from
the inverter outputs were routed from an outdoor rated Listed
fused disconnect switch into the existing panelboard. The
ungrounded PV phase conductors are connected (spliced) to the
service entrance conductors connected between the load side of
the meter socket and line side of the main circuit breaker serving
as the main (service) disconnect.
The line side tap was made by a Listed insulation piercing
connector, Model UTILCO KUPLER, IPC 4/0 - #6, which was
connected to the 2 AWG service entrance conductors and to the
6 AWG, THWN PV system tap conductors. The terminal was
torqued to 160 in -Ib (13.3 ft -Ib) by a calibrated torque wrench,
Husky, Model 564394, Serial Number 416070117, Calibration
Date: 07/22/2016.
The UL inspection does not include any PV panel(s), DC
conductors, DC disconnect(s), inverter, raceways (AC or DC),
AC disconnect(s), overcurrent protection of PV system, or
grounding or bonding of PV components, PV system, or
raceways. It also does not include an assessment of the
2017 -709 -FE Field Evaluation Services Report Page 4 of 9
A
condition of the existing panelboard, circuit breakers, metering
enclosure, service installation, or existing feeder or branch circuit
wiring installation.
The modifications to the panelboard, as evaluated and
documented in this report, have determined that the panelboard
continues to be compliant with the applicable product safety
standards and that the modifications do not cause the
panelboard to be unsuitable for continued service.

probe is used to measure access where necessary. Vent openings are verified to not align
with potential discharge paths of gases expelled from circuit breakers when clearing fault
conditions.
Results: Enclosures prevent contact with moving parts, electrically energized parts, and hot parts.
Enclosures provide an acceptable degree of protection for internal components (according to
the product's installation environment). All electrically live parts external to the enclosure are
guarded as required by the applicable standards. No electrically hazardous energized parts
are accessible from the exterior of the ultimate enclosure as required by Section 110.27 of
the NEC.
6.4 Mounting of Components
Method: Components that support live parts and uninsulated current carrying parts are secured to
prevent them from turning or shifting in position if such motion may result in a reduction of
spacings below the minimum acceptable values. Friction between surfaces is not acceptable
as a means of preventing shifting or turning of a live part.
Result: Components are mounted such that they are fixed in place and protected from a reduction in
electrical spacings and strain on wiring terminations.
6.5 Wiring and Wiring Methods
Method: All conductors were inspected for Listing or Recognition by a Nationally Recognized Testing
Laboratory according to UL policies. The conductors were examined for proper ratings
(voltage, ampacity, temperature, flexibility, flame, and environmental ratings) as required for
the application. The wiring methods were verified to comply with the applicable standards and
provide proper physical protection, including strain relief, where applicable. The wiring
terminations were inspected for correct application, number of conductors according to their
Listing, and correct ampacity based on temperature ratings.
Results: Details as follows:
6.5.1 Wire Terminations
All wire terminations are suitable for the number and size of conductors installed.
2017 -709 -FE Field Evaluation Services Report Page 6 of 9
6.5.2 Supply Connections
