On my weeping roof

 First, it weeps because of all the love it sees laying there. 

Protection by enforcement of code meant to protect a life. The code at this point seems oh so pointless. Yet  it continues to be part of the show, as in the show stopper. 

What is this code? And is it so pointless?And what might happen next?

The code is a requirement to have an AC disconnect- “SINGLE THROW SAFETY SWITCH “ in order to turn off alternating current which could cause harm to an individual remote from a energy producing grid 

The possibility of pointlessness here is …a terrain which on the one hand I am not an expert at, and on the other hand I have been trying to understand if the universe of knowledge around the energy system has changed to make it a moot requirement. Put another way, has the technology changed to automatically yield prior specific requirements as no longer needed ruins which block usage?

And it may not be the person on the grid that needs the protection. It is the grid itself that need protection from your energy producing grid. Your energy producing system might send energy in a format which is bad for the grid. And in this knowledge I know I am lacking in the full meter required to discuss. But then, my understanding is that there are gadgets in the system that do that now. If your energy producing system is out of kilt or no longer on the grid then it will stop passing energy outside. . For this and so much more :

So this is what I want: my roof to stop weeping from all the inaction the vendor and the building department have in regard to this code requirement   My roof will weep no longer when the sun shines on the panels to generate renewable energy for people to use.
