Jay, the original issue wasn't about the breakers being on the side;
it was about putting a battery cabinet underneath the disconnect
enclosure. If the cabinet sticks out too far, it violates working
clearance in the code.<br>

<div>that said it is a ETL listed device no?</div>

</div>
<div>And in regards to Xantrex, the old DC disconnect had breakers
on the side as well as the conduit box for the SW, again UL or

<div>Can you elaborate?</div>

I don't think Robin has posted anything, it just came in a
conversation we had. As I understand it, service equipment
must have nothing interfering with designated working
clearance, within a few inches of depth allowed. With
Outback, Magnum, and Xanschneider the breakers are on the
front surface and are within the allowable depth.
Midnite/Magnum and Midnite/Outback places them back toward
the back wall with the inverter on the hinged cover; thus
the battery enclosure technically sticks out too far. The
XW Midnite panel doesn't have this issue, as it's a
different layout. If necessary, one solution would be to
mount the E-Panel several inches out from the wall
surface.<br>
