Hi Jim,
We have worked with AET to add their Rayport B (ballasted) racking system
to our Enphase Racking Compatibility List. AET has developed an Accessory
Kit for mounting Enphase microinverters to the Rayport B. (accessory kit
80672A), which is detailed on our list.
We updated the Racking Compatibility list on our website this month, and it
can be found under 'Downloads' at;
http://enphase.com/wp-uploads/enphase.com/2011/03/EnphaseAppNote_RackingCompatibility.pdf
While the Enphase Racking Compatibility List is not a comprehensive list of
all racking systems that Enphase Microinverters are available with, it does
provide a list of solutions that have been validated by our mechanical and
field application engineers. Racking companies that would like to be
included on this list can reach out to me directly by email.

“Don’t get me wrong: I love nuclear energy! It’s just that I prefer fusion
to fission. And it just so happens that there’s an enormous fusion reactor
safely banked a few million miles from us. It delivers more than we could
ever use in just about 8 minutes. And it’s wireless! .”
