[RE-wrenches] Knockouts far from the backplane.

Friends:



I have noticed increasingly that inverters I have been using (Soul-Arc and
Fortress Envy) have knockouts that are far in front of the backplane on
which the inverter would be mounted.  Connecting conduit from these
inverters into standard gutters, load centers and pull boxes is quite a
hassle:  Offsets can eat up a lot of vertical space.  Pulling elbows (LBs)
don’t really work in this situation.



See diagram below:











One solutIon is to stack pull boxes or gutters, althouigh this eats up
vertical space and increases the labor and parts count:



How are the rest of you handling this backplane problem?



Thanks in advance.
