Normally, I have good things to say about Xantrex and their GT and XW class
inverters. I personally replaced four GT units a while ago as they dealt
with their "capacitor" problem.
This post is about the XW product.
We installed a XW6048 with two charge controllers, a 4,200 W-dc PV array and

The 200W, 96 cell inverter is CSA listed to UL1741, and is on the CEC
list of eligible inverters. Obviously there are more products on the
way, but I'm not at liberty to discuss the details right now. We do
keep the website VERY up to date.
Your results are very much inline with our

Wrenches,
I will let the Enphase inverter rep, Marv, answer any questions about future
higher watt rated inverter generations, but we had first had experience
installing a beta test of eight 200W enphase inverters HIP-200BA3 modules on
a former installation of 16 modules on a Fronius IG3000 inver

Geoff,
Probably the easiest method is to tap into the system ground which is
already run to the module frame using an irreversible splice. Some guys
run the system ground to the inverters and then irreversibly splice a
short "pigtail" to the module. Just be sure to leave a little slack.

making sure that it meets all NEC requirements. If you run into an AHJ

Another problem that is even more basic is the 175 watt
175W is an output rating, so for most climates it will do the job. They
mentioned a slightly higher rated unit on the horizon.

Our AHJ has a list of reasons that shoot down even the thought of using
Enphase... including, his requirement for AC and DC discos on each
