OP, go to the SECO website, there you will find three (if I remember correctly) documents that will provide all of the information that you will need to have your proposed facility connected to the grid. SECO as I recall uses the 'Net metering' model, however, I do NOT remember what happens if you generate excess power over the month or year. I do down load these about a year ago, but what I have may be dated.
There will be multiple inspections involved, and Sumter County just changed the building code as of June 30th, no idea if this would impact your proposed project. There is a push in the state to open up the area of solar generation, but this will take some time to get into law.
Hope this helps.
