National Electrical Code
®
on Renewable Power Systems
The 1996 revision of the National Electrical Code
8
has established electrical
system requirements on the wind and photovoltaic power systems. The
photovoltaics are covered in Article 690. The Article 705 covers all renewable
and cogeneration power systems, including the wind, which is reproduced
in Appendix 1 of this topic.
