HI Howie, I've seen someone use a single 4/0 fine stranded cable with a regular lug on the end of it. they then cut the top of the hole out to make in a sense a U shape. Each side of the U fit into each side of the 2 hole barrel connector on the SI.
Super slick iI thought. I can send you a pic if you want. jay peltz power On Feb 4, 2013, at 11:46 AM, Howie Michaelson wrote: > Hi it has been more than a year since I wired up a Sunny Island 5048 > system and I'm trying to determine lug size for the DC conductors.
