Trace ST AC and DC wiring [RE-wrenches]

[Eric Smiley]

I haven't actually seen one of these units yet, but I've read the manual
and I am perplexed.
It appears that the DC and AC wiring is all grouped together in the same
compartment. How is this allowed? Our Code states explicitly that,
"Conductors that are connected to ... different sources of voltage shall
not be installed in the same box, cabinet , or fitting unless: a) A
barrier of sheet steel ... etc " I'm sure the NEC is similiar.

Aren't the PV source circuits and the grid different sources of voltage?
