The following safety/warning labels have been attached

• "Warning" Dual Supply -Isolate both normal and solar supplies before working on this switchboard. (On switchboard that inverter is directly connected)

• "Normal supply" main switch (is permanently fixed at the main switch)

• "Solar supply" main switch (is permanently fixed at the solar main switch)

• "Warning" Dual supply - isolate solar supply at Distribution Board (where the inverter connects to a DB)

• Inverter location (where the inverter is not located adjacent to the main switchboard)

• "Warning" hazardous DC voltage (Permanently fixed on array junction boxes)

• "Solar array on roof" and "PV" labels (permanently fixed on MSB and/or meter box)

• "PV array DC isolator" (DC isolator a clearly identified)

• "Warning - multiple DC sources" (Placed adjacent to inverter when multiple isolator are used and not ganged together)

• "Solar" (Labels placed on exterior of wiring enclosures)

• "Shut down procedure" (permanently fixed at inverter and/or main switchboard)
