[RE-wrenches] Working Space

[Dave Click]

I learned in a Xantrex GT training (way back) that their 36" bottom 
clearance requirement was to avoid [most] lawn sprinklers, so that may 
be the case here too. I'd still plan for it to be high enough to avoid 
any basement flooding and to remain easy to access. May be worth 
discussing with SMA ahead of time in case the AHJ complains about it 
during the field inspection.
