[RE-wrenches] Enphase Phone Service

[Mac Lewis]

Hi Wrenches,

I know we've discussed this recently, but yesterday I literally could not
figure out out how to even get on phone hold for customer support with
Enphase on their support number (877)797-4743.  It kept saying that I
needed to contact my local installer or referred me to the website and
would hang up on me.  Anyone have a good way to contact them as an
installer?

Its either a poorly constructed phone tree or it really isn't a tech
support number.

Thanks

That's the number we use.

You have to have your ID number and the site ID number as well.

We've had fairly quick responses last couple of times.

[RE-wrenches] #6 PV Wire Transition

[Corey Shalanski]

We're looking for a way to transition from #6 PV wire to #8/#10 PV wire
wye-harnesses. Unfortunately Multi-Contact doesn't seem to manufacture a
#6-compatible MC4 connector. Has anyone else had to deal with this? or has
any creative solutions?

Re: [RE-wrenches] #6 PV Wire Transition

[Benn Kilburn]

Could you use one of those insulated Ilsco terminal blocks (sorry, don't have a 
part number handy) to transition the #6 to short length of #8/10 then put your 
#8/10 connector on the short piece?

Re: [RE-wrenches] #6 PV Wire Transition

[August Goers]

My gut is that MC4 can’t handle the kind of current that you need for #6
wire. Why such large PV wire?

[Allan Sindelar]

Corey,
The Ilsco would work, but they're quite expensive and aren't likely 
rated for exposure to weather.
While I don't have a solution, Brian or staff at PV Cables may if anyone 
does. 707 923-3000, www.pv-cables.com
