Hi Kirk, The Sunny Boy inverters also have a pair of lugs for a single conductor pair coming in from the array. They are meant to be used if you have an external combiner. No bus bars as you describe are needed.

Hello, The Sunny Tower has four individual fuse holders on the DC input of each inverter. I am combining the array output for each inverter in a combiner box before the tower, so there is only a single positive, negative, and gnd going to each inverter's DC input. I want to fan this input out to each of the four dc fuses via a combiner bus with a single lug and prongs which fit directly into each fuseholders' input, ala the Outback combiner bus. Is there something similar made for the SunnyTower dc input? I have not been able to talk to SMA yet about this. Thanks.
