[RE-wrenches] EnPhase male whips

[August Goers]

We cut the extensions too. What other options are there when you have
multiple sub arrays all over the place? Enphase told us not to cut the
inverter leads which makes sense but I don't see any problem in cutting the
extensions.



Best,



August

We cut the extensions all the time to jump from deck to deck. You used to
have to have the proper pin out schematic to pair the proper wires but now
they’re labeled L1,L2,L3, and then a green yellow wire for neutral. Just cap
the L3 if you’re not using it for 3 phase.

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...

Thanks,
