Today was not a solar power day though as the rain was coming down when the city inspector arrived. It made it a little tricky climbing on to the roof in the rain but they did get it done and checked out without anyone slipping or sliding on the roof.

Solar Energy For Homes – Got Our First Inspection

0810_oaklandWell we are just one small step away from getting to turn on our new system on our home and start generating power from the sun.

Today we had the city building inspector come by and check out the install that SolarCity did for us in recent weeks. James from SolarCity came over to help the inspector and get the paperwork signed off.

The crew had of course done a great job on the install of our (First ), inverter and electrical system tie in so it was not much in doubt as to whether the inspector would approve.

I am hopeful that this will not take anymore than a week or two at most.
