[RE-wrenches] Fw: center feeding Enphase

[SunHarvest]

Jesse -

We order at least 1 extra drop for each of our Enphase installs now, just to make things easier. The engage splices are pretty slick but aren't cheap. Those are two options (except that you already have the material...so really only one.) Pulling the slack out of the engage cable works but is not a best practice if it kinks the cable, obviously. I'd go with the engage splices.

  I find info about the AC soladeck in my distributors catalog, but I don't find any information about it on Soladeck's website.

    Hello, 


    I am in the process of installing a Enphase system that requires center feeding the individual 15 modules circuits. I am wondering about wiring the J-Box.  I need to cut all of the boxes into the center of the runs of Engauge cable and maintain the 6" of free conductor.  To do this, I will need to pull the trunk cable towards the J-Box.  There are a few spots where doing this may pull the inverter connection points to far from the inverter.  It looks like like the spots where this will be a problem is where the circuit of modules is made up of modules from different North-South rows of racking. I took some rough measurements at the end of the day, but haven't really laid the cable out to check if it will really be problem.


    I'm sure this is common, and easily fixed, but a conformation from another installer would surely be welcome.


    Thanks,


    Jesse
