#### 63. Purpose of Visual Inspection During PV System Commissioning
**Question:**
What is the purpose of visual inspection when commissioning a PV system?
**Options:**
A. To perform a detailed analysis of system output
B. To ensure operation of ground-fault protection devices
C. To confirm all modules are producing as expected, given environmental conditions
D. To identify easy-to-find, deficient details of installation without the use of instrumentation
**Explanation:**
Visual inspections are critical during the commissioning process of a PV system. They help ensure that all components are installed correctly and functioning as intended, without necessarily relying on complex tools for initial findings.
