Standard labels use UV-laminated outdoor vinyl and satisfy most NEC labeling requirements. Reflective labels use engineering-grade reflective material so first responders can identify PV circuits in low light, and many fire authorities — including several California jurisdictions — require reflective markings on solar conduit and raceways. Check with your local authority having jurisdiction (AHJ) if you are unsure which your project needs.

Yes. Most labels have quantity price breaks — for example, discounts starting around 10 units and reaching up to 40% off at 500+ units on many items. Solar installers ordering for multiple jobs can also contact us about commercial labeling solutions.

A typical permitted residential PV system needs labels required by NEC Articles 690 and 705, commonly including a rapid shutdown label, PV system disconnect labels, "Warning: Multiple Power Supply Sources" labeling, conduit/raceway markings such as "Warning: Photovoltaic Power Source," and a directory placard at the service equipment. The exact set depends on your system design and which NEC edition your jurisdiction has adopted — our NEC label packs bundle the commonly required labels for each code year.

Use the NEC edition your state or local jurisdiction has adopted, which is not always the newest one — many jurisdictions remain on NEC 2017 or 2020. Your permit office or AHJ can confirm the adopted code cycle. We stock label packs organized by NEC year so you can match your jurisdiction exactly.

NEC 690.12 requires most rooftop PV systems to have a rapid shutdown function, and the code requires a label identifying the rapid shutdown type and the location of the initiation device. The label is typically installed at or near the service equipment or rapid shutdown switch so first responders can find it immediately. Wording and format differ between NEC 2017 and NEC 2020, so match the label to your adopted code year.

Labels are adhesive vinyl markings applied to equipment, disconnects, conduit, and raceways. Placards are rigid engraved signs — often required at the service entrance or utility meter — used for system directories, house maps showing disconnect locations, and utility-specific requirements. Many jurisdictions require engraved placards specifically because they outlast adhesive labels in weather.

In many jurisdictions, yes. Fire codes in several areas — including much of California — require reflective, weather-resistant "Warning: Photovoltaic Power Source" markings on PV conduit and raceways so firefighters can identify energized circuits. We offer both standard UV-laminated and engineering-grade reflective versions; confirm the requirement with your AHJ or fire authority.

The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power and the LA Fire Department have their own placard requirements for solar installations in their service territory, including specific engraved placards at the service equipment. We manufacture LADWP-compliant fire department placards to these specifications so LA-area installs pass inspection.

Yes — labeling is one of the most common correction items in PV inspections. Inspectors check that required labels are present, use the wording and format of the adopted NEC edition, are durable and suitable for the environment, and are placed in the required locations. Ordering a label pack matched to your jurisdiction's code year is the simplest way to avoid a re-inspection.

Common placements include: on or adjacent to each disconnecting means, at the point of interconnection, on inverters and combiner equipment, and along PV conduit and raceways — the NEC calls for raceway markings at intervals (commonly not more than 10 feet apart) and near turns and penetrations. A directory or map placard goes at the service equipment. Always follow the adopted NEC edition and any AHJ-specific placement rules.

Our labels are produced with the wording, colors, and formats specified by the relevant NEC editions and ANSI Z535 signal-word conventions (DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION), on materials rated for outdoor use as the code requires.

Solar labels are a code-required safety feature: they tell firefighters, utility workers, inspectors, and electricians where energized solar circuits are and how to shut the system down. Your installer normally applies them during installation, but homeowners often need replacements after repairs, re-roofing, or when labels fade. See our Homeowner Guide to Solar System Labels on the blog for a plain-English walkthrough.

Yes. Faded or missing labels are a safety issue and can be flagged during home sales, re-inspections, insurance reviews, or utility work. Replacement is inexpensive — our UV-laminated vinyl and reflective labels are rated for years of sun exposure, and you can match your system's original NEC code year from our label packs.

Yes. Anyone can order from us — no contractor account required. If you're permitting a DIY system, ask your permit office which NEC edition applies, then order the matching NEC label pack; call us at 951-800-8599 if you're unsure what your plan set requires.
