collector is located,between the hours of 9:00 AM and 3:00 PM • <br /> Standard time on any day of the year. <br /> Solar collector:A device,structure or a part of a device or structure <br /> for which the primary purpose is to transform solar radiant energy <br /> into thermal,mechanical,chemical,or electrical energy. <br /> Solar collector surface:Any part of a solar collector that absorbs <br /> solar energy for use in the collector's energy transformation process. <br /> Collector surface does not include frames,supports and mounting <br /> hardware. <br /> Solar daylighting:A device specifically designed to capture and <br /> redirect the visible portion of the solar spectrum,while controlling <br /> the infrared portion,for use in illuminating interior building spaces <br /> in lieu of artificial lighting. <br /> Solar energy: Radiant energy received from the sun that can be <br /> collected in the form of heat or light by a solar collector. <br /> Solar energy device:A system or series of mechanisms designed <br /> primarily to provide heating,to provide cooling,to produce electrical <br /> power,to produce mechanical power,to provide solar daylighting or <br /> to provide any combination of the foregoing by means of collecting <br /> and transferring solar generated energy into such uses either by <br /> active or passive means.Such systems may also have the capability of <br /> storing such energy for future utilization.Passive solar systems shall <br /> clearly be designed as a solar energy device such as a trombe wall and <br /> not merely a part of a normal structure such as a window. • <br /> Solar energy easement:See renewable energy easement. <br /> Solar energy system:A device or structural design feature,a <br /> substantial purpose of which is to provide daylight for interior <br /> lighting or provide for the collection,storage and distribution of solar <br /> energy for space heating or cooling,electricity generating,or water <br /> heating. <br /> Solar heat exchanger:A component of a solar energy device that is <br /> used to transfer heat from one substance to another,either liquid or <br /> gas. <br /> Solar hot water system:A system that includes a solar collector and <br /> a heat exchanger that heats or preheats water for building heating <br /> systems or other hot water needs,including residential domestic hot <br /> water and hot water for commercial processes. <br /> Solar mounting devices: Devices that allow the mounting of a solar <br /> collector onto a roof surface or the ground. <br /> Solar storage unit:A component of a solar energy device that is used <br /> to store solar generated electricity or heat for later use. <br /> Solar system,active:A solar energy system that transforms solar <br /> energy into another form of energy or transfers heat from a collector <br /> to another medium using mechanical,electrical,or chemical means. <br /> Solar system,building-integrated:An active solar system that <br /> is an integral part of a principal or accessory building,rather than <br /> a separate mechanical device,replacing or substituting for an • <br />
