Jason:

You can run a 6 or 8 bare in the attic (don't have the book handy) alongside your romex.

690.47 has an exception exempting the supplementary electrode if the DC load is within the array, which is the case.

My plan was to use the new Enphase coupler to connect the trunk cable to Type TC-ER, enter a Soladeck passthrough box on the roof into a junction box in the attic where I would make the transition to 10/3 Romex. I'm hung up on the GEC going back to the service panel. Any suggestions?
