As you are likely aware, PV Squared is a worker-owned-cooperative B-Corp, employing 40+ people in Greenfield. We have installed thousands of PV Systems out of our Greenfield, MA Headquarters since 2002. PV Squared is committed to complying with all Commonwealth laws and regulations. Our worksite guidelines are created with the intention of exceeding all safety, electrical, and building requirements as defined by their respective jurisdictional entities. This includes the work of people from multiple disciplines, including electrical engineering, structural engineering, civil engineering, electricians, construction supervisors, roofers, and their associated helpers. We are a company that values training and education. We make certain that every individual is qualified for the roles and responsibilities that they assume. It is our policy to pay for the employees travel and training time and cost of the education, including CSL and Journeyman and Master Electrician classes. As an electrical contractor we are furthermore guided by the January 30, 2009 Massachusetts Board of State Examiners of Electricians (BSEE)judgements, and rulings that have followed. We pay strict adherence to these mandates and all electrical work is conducted by an electrician and an electrician's apprentice in a 1:1 ratio. We also understand that non-electrical tasks associated with a Solar installation can be completed by non-electrical workers, such as CSLs and others. I have attached our installation policy for your review, as well as a list of example non-electrical tasks. Should you have any questions or concerns regarding this policy or delineation of work, please let us know. We are a learning organization that is always trying to improve on what we do.

Roofing Material: Asphalt composite GZ� May 12,2017 Mr. Matt Valliere Pioneer Valley PhotoVoltaics Cooperative Inc. 311 Wells Street,Suite B Greenfield, MA 01301 Re: Martin residence, Northampton, MA GZA File No. 02.0172356.10 1-25 PV Squared No. 11618 Dear Mr.Valliere, At your request GZA has reviewed the information PV Squared ("you") provided on the roof and supporting structure at the Martin residence at 66 Maynard Road, in Northampton, MA.The purpose of this review was to provide an opinion as to the structure's ability to support proposed rooftop photovoltaic panels.The proposed PV array is to be installed over the existing house and a proposed addition.You have also provided architectural plans for the proposed addition.You also provided catalog information on the proposed photovoltaic (PV) panels. Both the roof structure information and the information on the proposed PV panels are attached to this letter for reference. You are proposing to erect PV panels on the south side of the roof of the house and addition.The house is a two-story wood framed colonial with an attic. The proposed addition will be and "L" off the existing house and the addition roof will intersect the existing house roof with valleys. The architectural plans for the addition call for 2x12 rafters at 16"O.C.The addition roof has been designed with an 8/12 pitch and asphalt shingles.We assume that asphalt shingles will be installed on an appropriate span rated plywood sheathing roof deck.The new roof will frame over the existing house roof where the two roofs intersect. The existing house roof is framed with rough sawn 2x6 rafters at approximately 18"O.C. The rafters span 11'-6"on the horizontal.The roof is pitched 35-degrees and is symmetric about the peak.The roof deck is solid board sheathing.The roofing material consists of asphalt shingles. Conclusion: Based on the information that you have provided, in our opinion,the proposed addition roof will be satisfactorily robust to support the additional dead load of the proposed PV system.Similarly, based on the photographs and information you have provided, in our opinion,the roof of the existing house is also satisfactorily robust to support the additional dead load of the proposed PV system oppa"oai„E p'et'er V/F/mx March 72,2017 File No.02.0172356.10 T-25 Martin Residence, Northampton, MA Page 1 2 We base our opinion on the information you have provided and the following assumptions. We assume that, owing to their slippery surface,the solar panels will shed snow better than the existing asphalt shingles.We further assume that the panels will be installed parallel to the roof,eliminating any additional wind load. We assume that the roof will be constructed as shown on the proposed architectural plans.The design ground snow load for Northampton is 55 psf. Based on the information that you provided,the proposed PV panels weigh 2.6 psf(4.7%of the design ground snow load). To summarize, in our opinion, the addition, if constructed as designed,will be structurally adequate to support the additional Dead Load of the proposed roof mounted Photovoltaic System, as is the existing house roof.

When engaged in this work as an employee of PV Squared on a PV Squared project site, activities of PV Squared employees are covered under the General Liability Insurance maintained by the Cooperative. It is the intent of this policy to provide clarity to installation situations where the applicable codes and regulations are unclear, ambiguous, or silent. It is possible that a municipal building or electrical inspector could interpret the codes and regulations in a manner that differs from what appears here. But this policy sets out, in writing, how the cooperative interprets legal work requirements and unclear details. It is an internal consensus working model, intended to be revised and improved from time to time. As a general matter, a city's or town's Building Commissioner is charged with enforcing the State Building Code, Plumbing and Gas Code, Electrical Code and Architectural Access Code. The commissioner addresses concerns about the safety, accessibility and security of construction of homes and businesses. The commissioner also enforces zoning bylaws. In accordance with Massachusetts General Law, employees of the cooperative who perform electrical tasks and activities must hold a Massachusetts journeymen's electrician license or be under the direct supervision of such licensed personnel. These tasks and activities include installing electrical wiring, conduits, apparatus, devices, fixtures or other appliances for carrying or using the electricity associated with Renewable Energy Generators (electrically active solar photovoltaic modules, wind turbine-generators, hydroelectric generators, etc.). In no circumstances shall the Massachusetts licensed journeymen have more than one learner or apprentice working with him/her or under his/her supervision. Mounting structures come in a variety of configurations and have differing functional and physical characteristics. A structural component or assembly becomes associated with electrical work as the Renewable Energy Generator is electrically bonded to the mounting structure. Unless otherwise noted in M.G.L. c.143 §§3 through §§60 inclusive, all structural work defined as follows shall not be required to be performed by a Massachusetts licensed journeymen electrician: • Structural improvements • Elements of a Renewable Energy Generator's support structure that fall under a building permit (e.g., assembly of top-of-pole mounting structure on steel pole with concrete foundation prior to execution of any required electrical bonding of the support structure and associated renewable energy generator (solar electric module) to the support structure Policy # 9 Installation Crew Operating Policy Pioneer Valley PhotoVoltaics Cooperative POLICY DOCUMENT #9 Current version adopted by the Board of Directors on April 28, 2011 • Roof-top mounting support structures including but not limited to posts, stand-offs, flashings, feet, and mounting rails • Operation of heavy equipment involved in moving, hoisting, digging and other tasks • Earth work, excavation and concrete work • Manual labor involved in moving loading and unloading of equipment • Moving, hoisting, and attaching an electrically bonded panel assembly (defined as one or more assembled and electrically bonded solar electric modules) to an existing structural support designed to host the panel assembly. Note however that construction of a panel assembly is an electrical task due to the required electrical bonding activities. Repair and Servicing of Installed Equipment Repair or replacement of an electrically bonded and/or energized renewable energy generator (e.g., installed solar electric panel) will be performed by a licensed electrician or properly supervised learner or apprentice working with the licensed electrician. Replacement of an installed inverter must be performed by a licensed electrician or properly supervised learner or apprentice working with the licensed electrician, if the work requires removal of AC and/or DC conduit and associated wiring that originates outside of the installed inverter (e.g., removal of external AC conduit and wiring between the inverter and point of interconnection with the on-site electrical service). Note that this activity may require a wiring permit in some local jurisdictions. This requirement also applies to the servicing of an installed inverter that involves replacement or repair of components and wiring internal to the pre-manufacturer inverter (i.e., factory installed components that were originally shipped with the inverter) even though such activity may not require a wiring permit. Replacement of an installed inverter may also be performed by a qualified technician who may or may not be a licensed electrician or properly supervised learner or apprentice working with a licensed electrician if the inverter is of a "plug and play" design. Such a qualified technician can also performed other tasks that include installation and servicing inverter-based performance monitoring systems (e.g., replacing internal communication cards, making "plug and play" ethernet connections, etc.), assuming these activities do not require creation of a new AC power source circuit to operate the communication system(s).
