Uniform Solar Energy Code
- Uniform Solar Energy Code
The Uniform Solar Energy Code (USEC) is a model code developed by the International Association of Plumbing and Mechanical Officials (IAPMO) to govern the installation and inspection of solar energy systems as a means of promoting the public's health, safety and welfare.
History
The advantages of a Uniform Solar Energy Code [http://iapmostore.org/iapmo/shop/index.php?cPath=4&osCsid=ah8a2i0d3odqbniqmgek5nsga3] , acceptable in various jurisdictions, had long been recognized, prompting IAPMO to pass a resolution at its 1975 annual business conference that directed the president to form a committee to develop a basic solar energy document.
After months of concerted endeavor, this committee, composed of representatives from industry and public utility companies, inspectors, plumbers and engineers, successfully completed the first edition of the USEC, which was officially adopted by IAPMO in September 1976.
