In the 2014 revision cycle the CC appointed a joint task group consisting of members of Panel 4 and Panel 5 to discuss grounding issues in Article 690. The recommendations of the Task Group were not consistently followed. Panel 5 believes that with few exceptions the provisions of Article 250 are adequate to address the installation of PV systems and asks the CC to assist in bringing consistency in the use and application of terms and installation practices related to grounding and bonding of solar photovoltaic systems. 13) Provide any additional information that you feel would be helpful to the NEC Correlating Committee, staff, or to the process in general: At the end of the meeting, some members of Panel 5 asked for a straw poll regarding adding labeling requirements for listed products throughout the code to provide information to the CC about their views. The result of the informal poll was a vote of 9-7 in favor of requiring labeling as a general rule. Page 4 of 13

5 Some members of Panel 5 asked that their difficulties cutting and pasting from the First Draft Report be reported to NFPA. Our limited testing revealed that TerraView does not work the same way on different systems running the same version of Firefox so that some members were able to cut and paste from the First draft Report and others were not. The chair was asked to report this to NFPA. The chair wishes to call attention to the lack of attendance of committee member Fred Song who has attended one meeting in the two revision cycles he has been a member. The chair has received no communications from this member regarding his lack of attendance. Finally, the chair and members of the committee wish to commend Barry Chase on his outstanding work as our staff liaison. His ability to navigate between TerraView and Word, as well his general understanding of the use of the Windows OS, were a refreshing change from the past. He was able to quickly catch the drift of the conversation and translate it into draft panel statements or code text for our review which greatly facilitated our rapid progress through the work. He handled the capriciousness of the committee with aplomb and good humor and was a pleasure to work with. Page 5 of 13
