It covers risk assessment, structural and roof suitability, accredited installers, compliance with national electrical standards, lightning protection and earthing, arc-fault and residual current monitoring, and safety interlocks. It details cable routing to prevent fire spread, UV protection, signage, inverter location and fire-rated compartments, and clear isolation points for DC and AC. Ongoing inspection, cleaning, IR thermography, automatic detection and suppression, alarm signaling, emergency response, and business continuity are also addressed.
