Dan from Manalapan, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since August of 2025. The array was completed in November: 36 panels making 15.48 kW, each with its own Enphase IQ8 microinverter carrying a 25-year warranty, and an estimated 16,602 kilowatt hours in the first year. JCP&L interconnected the system in December. The critter guard runs 252 feet, the longest run on any array we have written up – it closes the gap between the panels and the roof along every exposed edge, which is where squirrels and birds get in and where the wiring they reach is most expensive to repair. The existing roof was sound, so no roofing work was needed before the panels went on.
Why Dan chose Green Sun Energy Services
More than solar panels: a professionally managed energy system, from design and permitting through installation, inspection, activation and ongoing support.

Solar questions from Manalapan homeowners
Are panels designed for the wind near Manalapan?
Yes. The array and its mounting system have to be designed to resist the applicable wind loads, and coastal and exposed locations can carry different wind-design conditions from sheltered inland ones. It is one of the reasons the mounting system and its engineering are chosen for the site rather than by habit.
Does solar add value to a home?
Owned solar can contribute value, though the effect depends on the property, the market, the age of the system, the electricity it displaces and how it is owned. An owned system is generally an asset associated with the property; a leased one is governed by a continuing contract, and the two should not be treated as the same thing.
What does NEC Article 705 cover?
It governs electrical systems where power-production equipment such as solar runs in parallel with another source, normally the utility grid. It is what decides how the array is allowed to connect to the home's service or distribution equipment.
