Look at what Jim's comment was about where I asked pardon - the idea in question was not very bright as best I can tell.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]Comment

Alternative to Fencing to make wiring not "readily accessible."
Originally posted by green View PostYou would have to check with your local authorities. I think more than the type of power leaving the array, the problem is the exposed wires and inverters on the back of the panels. You need to prevent anyone from being able to access the exposed electronics.

One solar specific solution has now appeared on the market. It's more attractive than plastic snow fence and custom-made to your specified size.

Ground mount barrier, fencing alternative photos
Originally posted by Jim1 View PostDoes anybody have a picture of a ground mount with some sort of fencing wrapped around it?
These examples are from www.solarscrim.com which makes this custom solution.
If this is acceptable, is totally up to your permitting authority. There are more and more places which are accepting this sort of solution, especially on smaller systems where fencing can add a big chunk to the bill.Comment

More attractive than chickenwire
Originally posted by Modelmaker View PostIn the past, in certain areas, we have been able to get away with simply attaching chicken wire to the back of the array to keep things inaccessible, unsightly...Yes, however it is fairly inexpensive.
