Leading the Industry in
Solar Microinverter Technology
YC600
Microinverter
With its groundbreaking design and features, the YC600 is the
pinnacle of microinverter technology. A single-phase, smart
grid -compliant microinverter, the YC600 serves two modules
with dual, independent MPPT. Zigbee wireless communication
over a mesh network offers faster data speeds than PLC and a
wider MPPT voltage range results in a greater energy harvest
for homeowners.
A true utility -interactive micfoinverter with Reactive Power
Control (RPC) technology, the YC600 meets CA Rule 21
requirements and is inherently NEC 2014/2017 Rapid
Shutdown compliant. The unit also builds on the successful
APsystems line of multi -module microinverters, simplifying
installation and reducing logistics costs.

PERMIT NO: E I - D `Y G
1. I have made application for a permit from the City of Tukwila, Washington.
2. I understand that state law requires that all building construction contractors be registered with the
State of Washington. The exceptions to this requirement are stated under Section 18.27.090 of the
Revised Code of Washington, a copy of which is printed on the reverse side of this Affidavit. I have
read or am familiar with RCW 18.27.090.
3. I understand that prior to issuance of a permit for work which is to be done by any contractor, the
City of Tukwila must verify either that the contractor is registered by the State of Washington, or that
one of the exemptions stated under RCW 18.27.090 applies.
4. In order to provide verification to the City of Tukwila of my compliance with this requirement, I
hereby attest that after reading the exemptions from the registration requirement of RCW 18.27.090,
I consider the work authorized under this permit to be exempt under number (3 , and will therefore
not be performed by a registered contractor.
5. I understand that the licensing provision of RCW 19.28.161 through 19.28.271 shall not apply to
persons making electrical installations on their own property or to regularly employed employees
working on the premises of their employer. The proposed electrical work is not for the construction
of a new building for rent, sale or lease.
I understand that I may be waiving certain rights that I might +t • :rwise have under state law in any decision
