[RE-wrenches] GEC for Enphase inverters

[Richard L Ratico]

Brian,

A GEC with no splices, or only irreversable splices, has only two ends. If you
need to find them to check their integrity, you know where to look.
No argument about acorn clamps. Exothermic welding might someday be required.

Inspectors in Arizona (some of them anyway) have been allowing the DC GEC to
land on the ground buss in the main service for some time.  I sort of find
the idea of an irreversible bond a little silly (well especially where the
two GECs must come together) - I've worked on a lot of systems using only
ground rods, and the connection to them is often made with the most
reversible of connectors (an acorn), and usually it is excessively
accessible.  And of course the other end of the AC GEC is landed on a bus
too.
