When you need this permit

  • Structural/racking attachment to a residential roof is reviewed under the Building Permit (2024 IRC) framework where a Building Permit applies (platted subdivision) — Chapter 4 § 1.4.A.3's rural-dwelling exemption logic extends to the structural aspect for rural dwellings, but the interconnection work still requires an Electrical Permit
  • Electrical interconnection, wiring, and disconnects require an Electrical Permit under NFPA 70 (NEC) 2026 Edition, Chapter 4 Section 10
  • Structural design must comply with Chapter 4 Section 1.6 snow load (35/30 psf) and wind speed (100–120 mph by risk category) criteria for the roof-mounted array

Tips

  • Campbell County has no dedicated solar permit type or fee schedule published on its Building Division page — treat a residential rooftop solar install as a combined Building Permit (structural) + Electrical Permit application, both no-fee.
  • Structural calculations should reference Chapter 4's local snow load (35/30 psf) and wind speed criteria rather than default IRC/ASCE 7 map values.
