Matching Outback inverers on powerboard? [RE-wrenches]

Hi Ron,
Maybe I m missing something but you would have to change the breaker
assemblies to add another inverter as the bypass and other breakers for a
single inverter are different (and more of them) for a dual inverter system.
Somewhere around that point you are back to the decision either to order
prewired or wired. I guess that it just depends if you want the extra parts
in the shop on a shelf. If there is No chance of having to go with more than
2 inverters the PS2 is easier to deal with, but if there is a chance that it
will expand further you will need the PS4
 
How is that for a definite, maybe?

Good night,
Bob

Well so far I've gotten two interesting points of view. One that "warranty
issues with the original assembled unit, it could be clouded by your
upgrade" as stated by William Miller and the other that weight issues always
drive them to assemble their panels in the field and no sweat. I don't
really think the warranty issues are likely to be a problem but I am
concerned about ending up with some quirky little problem like maybe a
difference in firmware revisions in two separately sourced inverters
...knock knock knocking on Murphy's door.
