Is plug-in solar legal in Nevada?

No plug-in-specific law yet

Nevada has no plug-in-specific law yet. That does not necessarily make small plug-in systems illegal, but standard utility interconnection rules and the National Electrical Code apply, so check with your utility and use UL-listed equipment on a GFCI-protected dedicated circuit.

Safety basics (everywhere)

Regardless of your state's law, use a kit with a UL 1741 (or UL 3700) certified microinverter, plug into a GFCI-protected outlet on a dedicated circuit, and don't exceed the circuit's rating. These are the same safety rules the new state laws are built around.
