This is why the Wrench list is awesome. I'm making a second annual donation to the list based on this answer alone. Michael: Blake gets all the credit.
Of course, my Eaton rep said it wasn't possible. That's better than SqD and ABB that told me it would work, but it didn't. We used to use those same Eaton hold down kits on Enphase IQ combiner, which used Eaton busbars, so I should have known it was possible. Thanks again. My local shop has 5 in stock. I'm good to go tomorrow!
