This is not the first time this has happened. QC problems left us
without the bulkhead MC connectors for 2 months some time ago.<br><br>
I've ranted before about requiring specialized hardware. The
practice increases costs and restricts supply. I prefer the gold
old days where commonly available NMLT and THWN were the only materials
required. Top down procedures have made this obsolete,
alas...<br><br>
There are third party options now. Have you tried Wieland
Electric?<br><br>
Good luck.<br><br>

Am I the last installer on earth to find out there are no more MC4
connectors? After checking into this I heard something about
a "run" on these conenctors due to problems with supplier, but
don't really know the story. Does anybody know what is going
on - is this a 2 week delay type problem, or are we all going to have
multiple $50,000.00 jobs on hold for months while we wait for a handfull
of $4 connectors?<br><br>
