I was cleaning up the photo library and found this picture from a virtual solar inspection. There's a bunch of it and I didn't see it until now.
Here's another photo from a virtual inspection:
The #4 was moved so that there is paint where the setscrew engages.
Is it damage or dirt?

You might have heard what I said without listening to what I said.
I have to wonder why the receptacle was placed next to the recently installed waste pipe which is not a cleanout fitting.
Eight circuits labeled "garage" and four "spare".

Cut the red wire...
Solar contractors just don't care.
The installer sent the second picture to show the mounting of the equipment. The Amphenol lay-in lug has two wires in the terminal. There is a cluster of bare copper wire against the aluminum rail. That's two violations that the installer was not aware of.

What’s up with all of the tin shingles? There is a semblance of a pattern and it is random at the same time.

Hahaha got it. I see a lot of step flashing used to patch small holes so I didn't think twice about that part.
Now that you mention it there is a pattern of some sort, I wonder if they were using those holes to blow-in insulation, then step flashing to patch the holes? That last picture up close of the hole looks about the right size hole and you can see some insulation. I'll place my bet on that.

Too much of a good thing:
Too much of everything:
Back in the saddle... Did one day in a city. The contractor is not required to be on site for inspection. Had solar inspections. Upon arrival I found them just like the picture shows....I didn't touch anything to stage the scene. It happens several dozen times each week in southern California. A common practice for years and I am not aware of anyone having been electrocuted. I used to raise Hell about this....I am just one person and nobody pays attention to me.

Not only is the contractor not required to be there for the inspection the inspector is not expected to actually perform the inspection. To the right of the battery control panel is another panel.
