I just called Soladeck and they are sending me some more info on availability. I'll pass it along when I get it. I didn't realize they made an AC roof mounted string combiner solution. That's a huge help for 2 or 3 string Enphase installations (they make both combiners).
While on the subject, we recently started using the Enphase cable couple with Type TC-ER cable to extend cabling to junction boxes when necessary... No more wasting trunk cable connectors! I suppose Type TC-ER could be used all the way to the main distribution panel, thereby eliminating junctions on the roof, but I haven't looked into the cost/benefit of that idea. *Jason Szumlanski* *Fafco Solar* On Mon, Nov 26, 2012 at 1:26 PM, Gary Willett <g...@icarussolarservices.com>wrote: > NICK: > > I could not find the AC model numbers you provided on the SolaDeck web site. > Do you know the manufacturer, and the voltage and temperature ratings, > for the 2-pole 20A AC breakers? > > Regards, > > > Gary Willett, PE > Icarus Engineering LLC**** > > Icarus Solar Services LLC > **** > > On 11/26/2012 11:54 AM, Nick Soleil wrote: > > Hi wrenches; > > SolaDeck Models 0760-41AD and 0766-41AD are rated for up to 60A at 240Vac. > > It can be ordered with DIN rail mounted AC breakers and a combiner kit. > The 2 - 20A circuit combiner kit is part 0760K2AC. > > I'd recommend checking with a distributor or on SolaDeck's website for the > most current information. > > Nick Soleil, > Enphase Energy > > > On Sun, Nov 25, 2012 at 7:44 AM, Kent Osterberg <k...@coveoregon.com>wrote: > >> My understanding has been that the Soladeck has only been listed for DC >> wiring.
