[RE-wrenches] OB FW Lightning Protection w/ EPanel

[Jeremy Rodriguez]

This is for an existing system. They are wanting to install the outback product on FXs installed with E panels
 They currently have Midnite arrestors. I know!

H Jeremy,

It has been years since I used Outback's Arrestors (I switched to Midnite's so I'm not sure if Outback's design has changed since then), but yes that is how it worked on an E-panel.  However, I think Midnite has stopped making the Epanel for the FX (FXR), although maybe you can find one in stock at a supplier.  Might be worth a call to Midnite...

Wrenches,
Has anyone installed one of the outback Lightning protection devices designed to fit inside the AC conduit box of an FX inverter, with the FX mounted to an E panel?
Just looking at some pictures it appears that it may work by re locating the flex conduits coming from the E panel, to the sides of the OB ACA vs. where they originally land.
Any thoughts or experiences would be appreciated!
