HI August,
I guess my question is.
Are they asking for a lockout AC disconnect on a AC circuit IE from the AC
panel?
or
are they asking for a lockout from the inverter AC at the inverter?

Hi Jay,
It is not acceptable to wire the AFCI breaker with the utility power on the
output of the AFCI breaker. That does not meet the specifications for the
AFCI breakers. These breakers are sensitive to having voltage on their
output when the breaker is opened, which can damage the AFCI breake
stall?

HI Will,
You can do this.
Take a standard breaker panel, install a Arc fault and run the wiring from the
enphase like it is the grid: ie into the main lugs.
Then this will go out through the breaker in the correct fashion, and onto the
main panel.
