Final Building Inspection Complete

Pat called this morning with the great news: tomorrow at 10:00 the coop will be here to plug in the rec meter and we can, at long, long last begin generating electricity. Dave, who installed the panels, brought county building inspector Jeff by this afternoon to sign off the final on the already built building as well as the solar installation. All blocks are now checked save the one from the coop. Tonight I labeled the new circuit breakers, a laborious process that was worth some cardio as I ran up and down the back stairs a few dozen times. After dark, I demonstrated what living on just the standby circuits powered by the generator would look like for Michelle. We were very pleased with the speed at which the Generac started up and the high quality of the power it provided (no flickering at all). Tomorrow, we will hopefully have a Photon Harvest Celebration! Stay tuned.
