We cut the extensions too. What other options are there when you have multiple sub arrays all over the place? Enphase told us not to cut the inverter leads which makes sense but I don't see any problem in cutting the extensions.

You used to have to have the proper pin out schematic to pair the proper wires but now they’re labeled L1,L2,L3, and then a green yellow wire for neutral. Just cap the L3 if you’re not using it for 3 phase.

We are having trouble laying out a system with multiple sub arrays. We need to cable to sub arrays that are on different roof planes in order to make up our circuits. From 5 micros on roof one, into attic, out of SolaDeck on roof two, grab 3 more micros, back into SolaDeck, into attic for home run. The whip from the SolDeck to the last 3 micros needs to be male... any suggestions? EnPhase does not want us to cut an extension that has connectors on both ends...
