        yup and if you install it wrong it’s you in trouble but you still can buy them and diy without a permit. They should just be regulated so only the certified ones can be sold.

          No, it’s the linemen who are in trouble.

          So you want to ban the sale of raw solar panels and inverters?

            No, because we’re talking about all in one systems that plug into the outlet, why are you bringing up raw components?

              …because one can also connect those? If I was to buy them, I sure would, because they’re less expensive, more readily available, and more serviceable. Why don’t you want to talk about them?

        I can go to the store today and get a generator and plug it right into my house and backfeed.

        I know this is idiodic so I don’t do it.

          It’s not just idiotic, it’s illegal, and you’ll face repercussions.
