Solar PV

What is the classification code on an EICR for Solar PV installed on one side of a split load RCD consumer unit?

    Surely the PV output (± battery) does not have to join at the origin?

    If the PV array shares a distribution circuit, does it need RCD protection at all?

    Does it come down to the inverter having simple separation. Transformer-less inverters may be able to feed a DC fault current into the AC side (Reference COP) The DC element May blind the split board RCD and potential leave other circuits without RCD protection.
