Solar installations in Akron require dual approval from both the City of Akron Plans & Permits Center and Summit County Department of Building Standards. Professional permit services ensure compliance with Ohio Building Code, Ohio Residential Code, and Summit County's photovoltaic regulations while managing interconnection procedures with Ohio Edison utility.

Summit County processes residential and commercial photovoltaic applications according to NEC Article 690 requirements. Systems 15kW or smaller installed on rooftop dwellings qualify for expedited over-the-counter permits when complete documentation is submitted. Larger systems, ground-mounted arrays, or commercial installations undergo mandatory plan review before permit issuance. All installations must comply with NEC 690.7 voltage limitations, restricting DC circuits to 600 volts maximum for one- and two-family dwellings. Summit County Building Standards at 1030 East Tallmadge Avenue administers the inspection process, ensuring installations meet rapid shutdown requirements per NEC 690.12 and proper electrical standards for grid interconnection.
