I agree that the exact placarding will depend on your AHJ, but you will
certainly want one that says something like "This breaker panel is for

Folks,
Two identical PV modules are mount in an identical fashion and exposed
to identical irradiance.
One module is open circuit. The other is connected to a load and
producing power.
Is there a difference in the temperature of the two modules? If so,
which one is cooler?
Mark Frye
Max,
Don't do the tap alone, you would be overdriving the subpanel. You would
need 200A of OCP somewhere between the tap and sub panel loads. Convert
the MOL to a 200A Main Breaker or install a 200A fused disconnect
between the tap and the MLO subpanel.

If you don't want to combine strings at the array, then I would use a
Square D HU361 for each string. It is a lot of hardware, but not too
expensive and very straightforward for a lay person to shut off without
