    Louisiana Contractor Requirement vs Upgradable System

    Nice thanks!! By the way, are you in Jefferson or Orleans Parish? From what I understand, there's a big difference in the laws and regulations between the 2 parishes. Mainly Entergy being 2 different entities (Entergy-Louisiana vs Entergy New Orleans) with Entergy-Orleans being much more Solar...

    New Orleans NooB First Foray into Solar

    Hey dude...I'm from NOLA as well.
