    So it sounds like you’re saying there is no way? And therein lies the problem.

      The certification on the product shows that it’s safe to use in grid-tie. What the fuck are you on about? Are you just being intentionally an obtuse pain in the ass?

        Are you a fucking moron? What’s to stop anyone from installing an uncertified product?

          The world is built around the idea that people follow the rules. If you plug in an uncertified device, you are breaking the law. It’s as simple as that.

          You realize you could fucking plug ANYTHING into electrical systems now? How many people make Widowmaker cords for generators and back feed the fucking grid during outages? This is not some new problem.

          If you’re found fucking around, you find out with a big ass fine/jail. That’s how it works.

            Except it’s not that simple, because it’s not illegal.

            You realize you could fucking plug ANYTHING into electrical systems now?

            You realize that’s illegal?

          What’s to stop anyone from installing a panel without a licensed reviewer taking a look?

      By now over 1.2 million people in Germany have registered (and even more have not registered) their legal small scale solar system and are producing their own electricity (mine covers 2/3rds of my total demand).

      If you think that’s a problem, be my guest.
