<DIV dir=ltr>I am curious about best practices for combining the output of multiple inverters:
<DIV>
<UL>
<LI>We are considering using an insulated tap "Polaris/Burndy" connector in lieu of a solar accumulation panel. We would then run the output of this tap connector through a fused disconnect and on to the interconnection. Does anyone else do this?
<LI>In the above scenario, how should we size the wire between each inverter's output and the tap connector? Since there is no OCPD on this wire, would we have to use the same wire gauge as the combined output? or can we get away with sizing each wire according to its associated inverter output rating? </LI></UL>
