Or use the existing 6kw that is ready to go...Put up solar without their permit and they will fine you per day until you take it down.

You have existing solar infrastructure on the property. Now that you have invited vampires across the threshold, are they requiring you to remove the existing panels? Are they requiring you to have electricity on the property?
I expect that building is/was condemned and is the primary source of your problems. I still hold it is highly unusual to require a permit to repair and existing system, but you did ask for permission. Hopefully a learning experience.The middle building is what caught on fire 2 years ago. It's also the building where all of the service drops came into, along with the grid tied solar for net metering.

Dang, i wish you didnt. Its important for folks to learn the process, picky inspectors are part of it. Reviving an old abandoned system ---I was looking forward to a success story.Cancelling this thread as it's turned into a discussion I didn't intend on having. I wanted advice on hardware but I'll try to figure that out another way.

Ahh, I'm sorry. Everyone is just hung up on my government and not comprehending how they are behaving and seems that's the topic for everyone. I am already talking about that constantly with electrician's, upcoming commissioner's, other county inspectors, friends, etc. etc, and I didn't want to go over all of their antics in here too. Because, it makes my blood boil, and I find myself going off on tangents about it because it's so f'ing infuriating and corrupt it's sickening. I'm not going to bow down to these dictating pricks, I'm not going to ask permission for something that was already approved and already there. I'm certainly not going to ask permission from this over reaching prick that doesn't have the right to do what he's doing anyways.... I will bite my nose off to spite my face, because I will stand on principle and principle alone. There is right, and there is wrong. This guy I've found out used to work for DEQ and had an authority over reach problem there also. I'm working on that shitshow, on the side, and while I appreciate everyone's comments, 'easier to work with them than against them', etc., while it's all in good intent, that makes me throw up in my mouth a little bit. I will work against them until my dying day. I will not cower or bend over for them like everyone else does. If more people in this world had a damn backbone and would stand up to tyranny, this world would be such a better place. These people do this crap because no one has the balls to stand up to them. It's absurd. Sigh........... see? Lol. I lose composure.Dang, i wish you didnt. Its important for folks to learn the process, picky inspectors are part of it.

I decided I'm just going to get an inverter, splice in some wires that they cut, put the fuses back in and hope shit doesn't blow up.
