I think that leaves you stuck with four separate disconnect switches unless someone on this list knows of a four pole DC rated disconnect switch. Or, you\u2019ll have to switch inverters. I have never installed these Solectria inverters so I don\u2019t know much about them. </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#44546a"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#44546a">Best,</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#44546a"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#44546a">August</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#44546a">Luminalt</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#44546a"> </span></p><div><div style="border:none;border-top:solid #b5c4df 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in"><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"">From:</span></b><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif""> RE-wrenches [mailto:<a href="mailto:re-wrenches-bounces@lists.re-wrenches.org">re-wrenches-bounces@lists.re-wrenches.org</a>] <b>On Behalf Of </b>William Miller<br><b>Sent:</b> Tuesday, October 07, 2014 8:28 AM<br><b>To:</b> RE-wrenches<br><b>Subject:</b> Re: [RE-wrenches] TL inverter with long DC Feeder</span></p></div></div><p class="MsoNormal"> </p><div><p class="MsoNormal">August:</p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal"> </p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal">I have been told I can't combine upstream of the inverter. </p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal"> </p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal">William</p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal"><br>Miller Solar</p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><br>On Oct 7, 2014, at 8:03 AM, August Goers <<a href="mailto:august@luminalt.com">august@luminalt.com</a>> wrote:</p></div><blockquote style="margin-top:5.0pt;margin-bottom:5.0pt"><div><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#44546a">William,</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#44546a"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#44546a">We have bumped into similar dilemmas when needing remote DC disconnects with TL inverters. I believe the Solectria you are using has two MPPTs? Ideally, you would keep each string separate to benefit from the dual trackers \u2013 this would mean four DC disconnects if you went with a standard product like a Square D HU361RB. If you combine each of the two strings out at the array(s) then you could get away with two disconnects, one for each inverter. Neither option is ideal.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#44546a"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#44546a">Best,</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#44546a"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#44546a">August</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#44546a"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#44546a">Luminalt</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#44546a"> </span></p><div><div style="border:none;border-top:solid #b5c4df 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in"><p class="MsoNormal"> </p></div></div></div></blockquote></div></body></html>
