New DSA Regulations Insight
The DSA has intensified regulations surrounding the installation and maintenance of solar panel systems. This includes rigorous load, wind design, and fire-life safety assessments to address concerns such as panel dislodgement in moderate wind events. Systems installed on existing structures must also consider accessibility and structural impacts without triggering DSA accessibility review
