[RE-wrenches] TL inverter with long DC Feeder

[Brian Mehalic]

Have you checked out the rotary disconnects available from IDC?  Their UL
listing is only to 600 V (IEC 1000), but they have numerous, multi-pole
configurations, and are outdoor rated.  And inexpensive too.

I haven't installed them yet, but have worked on some designs using the AC
versions as inverter equipment disconnects.

Cheers,
