Q: Are the model numbers on electrical and building permits in New Mexico required to match the contract and loan papers?
My father had solar panels installed on his home in NM and when gathering the info for the tax credits I noticed differences in the information listed on the electrical and general building permits, installer contracts and loan financing documents regarding the solar panel model numbers, the actual size of the system being installed. Are they required to match or does it not make a difference that they are different? If they are required to match what are the consequences for them not matching and who is responsible in correcting them?
A: A New Mexico attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. Until you're able to speak with a local attorney or an official from the buildings department, one issue that could possibly arise from the standpoint of insurance is whether there are inconsistencies in ratings for voltage, amperage, or other parameters that could be investigated more closely if any kind of claim arises. Good luck
