Electric Service Reqs

A disconnect switch to isolate the DR equipment is required. The switch must be clearly labeled as a DR disconnect switch


PV W/ BATTERY:

If the customer connects a backup generator directly to the customer’s wiring to serve any load on the customer’s site, it shall utilize a double-throw transfer switch in order to ensure that no power is fed back onto the Cooperative’s distribution system. This is a critical safety requirement.

Compiled from public records, 2026. Tariffs and interconnection rules change; verify with Washington Electric Cooperative (OH) before you rely on this. The useful move: if an installer says you need a main panel upgrade, ask how these tap and interconnection policies were considered first.
