[RE-wrenches] EnPhase male whips

[Nick Soleil]

William:
    Your diagram is one way to do it, in fact, I always divide my circuits into 
2 sub-circuits, to minimize voltage drop on the Enphase wiring, and then 
parallel the sub-circuits at the j-box.  However, there is a value to having a 
male cable.   They can simplify some installations, such as the situation that 
Eric described.  As mentioned before, the extension cable can be cut, and the 
other end is used as a standard whip.

 Eric:

You connect the factory provided termination kit to the Enphase array on each 
roof.  All of the Enphase inverters on one array do not need to be in a daisy 
configuration.

I have attached a drawing hat should illustrate

I know its a funny title but....why doesn't EnPhase make whips with male 
connectors? We are having trouble laying out a system with multiple sub arrays. 
We need to cable to sub arrays that are on different roof planes in order to 
make up our circuits. From 5 micros on roof one, into attic, out of SolaDeck on 
roof two, grab 3 more micros, back into SolaDeck, into attic for home run. The 
whip from the SolDeck to the last 3 micros needs to be male... any suggestions? 
EnPhase does not want us to cut an extension that has connectors on both ends...
