Just had an electrician doing some work and thought we would need to restart the inverter to get it going again so we were going to turn the DC power off, the inverter was supposed to have integrated DC isolation but it appears to not, therefore neither string now has DC isolation, is this breaking any regs by not having a means to disconnect the panels safely?

Just giving this thread a wee boost.
I’m not an installer myself, but all PV installs I have seen, including my own, have had a DC isolator.
Usually a black one for DC and Red/yellow for AC side. And labels on everything!
