	Item	What We're Checking For
C1	Credit Check	As a part of the M2 Activation process, Homeowner's must satisfy our New Homes Credit parameters Credit can be ran anytime during M0/M1/M2 Credit check gathers data, meaning that while credit must be ran for M2, it will not be rejected outside of extenuating circumstances.

A1	Monitoring Portal Access	Monitoring site ID for inverter (and battery I/A) provided Site owner designation provided Current Transformers (CTs) installed correctly based on manufacturer requirements Cell kits and Revenue Grade Metering (RGM) are required on all projects. If equipment is placed indoors and the signal is weak, a cellular signal booster may be required.

	Item	What We're Checking For

S2	Extended Warranty	Extended warranty purchased for inverter(s) without standard 25 year warranty. As of 5/29/25, LightReach will be stepping up to own the SolarEdge warranty application process. As such, the proof of extended warranty coverage for SolarEdge will no longer be required for M2. The EPC will still be responsible for the cost of the extended warranty, and LightReach will net the cost of the warranty for the milestone payment prior to batching. The inverter cost is based on the SolarEdge model. Price list can be found here: warranty-extension-pricelist-na.pdf
S3	Site Improvement Photos	If applicable, photos of the site improvements made such as tree removal or main panel upgrade.
