DESCRIPTION:Join us for our IEEE Tech Talk on the NEC Article 690 Photovolt
 aic Power Systems on Tuesday January 25\, 2022 at 7 pm PST. Find out impor
 tant construction and safety issues concerning the installation and operat
 ion of Photovoltaic (Solar Arrays). There are also civil\, architectural a
 nd security issues to consider\, which may require more than just installi
 ng locks. We also discuss Solar Photovoltaic Power Systems IEEE 1562-2021 
 Recommended Practice for Sizing Stand-Alone Photovoltaic (PV) Systems.\n\n
 Recent (2019 and 2021\, respectively) updates to IEEE 1013 and IEEE 1562 (
 from their 2007 editions) for sizing standalone PV panels\, charge control
 lers\, and batteries. In the past 15 years\, not only have solar panels co
 me way down in price\, enabling even more people to economically be off-gr
 id\, but charge controller technologies have greatly improved\, and solar 
 panel efficiencies have improved as well. Li-ion batteries have also enter
 ed the market\, as they have many more cycles than past lead-acid and Ni-C
 d equivalents\, and their price has dropped significantly\, while their re
 latively poor safety record is improving. While IEEE 1013 is specifically 
 focused on lead-acid technologies\, its principles are easily applied to o
 ther battery technologies. The Q&A portion of this webinar will discuss gr
 id-connected solar and batteries\, as well as Fuel Cells.\n\nCo-sponsored
