Hi Jeff;
The new combiner boxes from Midnite are interesting for this application
too, as they offer a single external disconnect built into the side of
each combiner box. They can later be easily upgraded with Midnite's new
arc fault protection and remote disconnect. One simple signal switch
Thanks to all who replied with code references. I think we have put up a
good argument and refuse to re-locate the five separate combiner boxes down
at eye level on the top parking area of a student parking deck. Just an
accident waiting to happen. However, in researching this issue I noted that
Jeff,
We have had some issues with this also
.maybe try this ref from the 2011 code 690.16 (b) where the disconnect
is located more than 1.8 m (6ft) from the overcurrent device, a directory
showing the location of each disconnect shall be installed at the
overcurrent device location

Jeff,
Try pointing them to 690.14(B). This allows for PV source circuit isolating
switches on the PV side of the disconnecting means. As you describe it, the
dc disconnect at the inverter is the required PV disconnecting means and you
can describe the combiner disconnects as source circuit isolat
