How strict are planers/inspectors (WASHINGTON STATE)

[Dominic]

I’m in the middle of planning out my array and panels to purchase and I keep coming within ~6” of regulation clearings.

- 36” either side clear
-18” ridge

It’s for a DADU but I’m sure this issue comes up with everyone. I’d rather not loose any more panel space

as long as you have clearance required you shoud be fine.

Are accessory buildings exempt from that requirement in your area?

My interpretation is that a dadu was a single family dwelling. However this may be an assumption…

A detached accessory dwelling unit (DADU), often called a backyard cottage or carriage house, is an ADU located in a separate structure from the main house.
