  Hi Eric,

   

  It is 25 inverters on a 20A circuit, but only on 208 three phase. Each micro 
connects to the cable in an alternating way (L1/L2, then L2/L3, then L3/L1, 
etc.) so with 25 micros there are either 8 or 9 micros on each combination.

   

  9 x 1.0 A x 1.732 (square root of 3) x 1.25 = 19.48 A = 20 A breaker

   

  Cheers,

  -Nathan

  Hey Wrenches & Nick Soleil (with whom I worked at APS for a time I 
believe...),

   

  I'm not familiar with Enphase commercial applications and am currently 
working through a commercial design. Enphase, on their M215 datasheets claim up 
to 25 micros per branch, at 1.0A each, with each branch terminating at a 20A 
breaker. By my calculations, 25 micros at 1.0A each (25A*1.25=31.25A) need to 
terminate at a 40A breaker. Anyone know what I'm missing or know how the 20A 
breaker design gets past the AHJ?
