Our customers already had the Outback gen-verter system in place from few years ago--we could not justify replacing them. i have looked into the Sunny Islands though, and they seem like a good way to go in the future. As an aside, I had originally planned on a Sunnyboy grid tie inverter

Mike, The RHH/RHW-2 do not cross to USE-2 because they do not have any rating for UV exposure. If these conductors are run outside of conduit on the array, you need USE-2 or PV conductor. Mark Frye Berkeley Solar Electric Systems 303 Redbud Way Nevada City, CA 95959 (530) 401-8024

The wires are in a Solardock mounting system, so they are not exposed, and are then run in conduit. Is the UV exposure rating the only difference? Mike _ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mark Frye Sent: Monday, December 01, 2008 3:51 PM To:

Mike, If they are not in conduit (a raceway), then they are exposed. They may not be and must not be subject to physical damage (protected by the modules, etc.), but that does not mean they are not exposed and must have the USE-2 / PV rating. Mark Frye Berkeley Solar Electric Systems 303

If the PTC is calculated from the STC and not the results of testing at PVUSA Test Conditions, then it's of somewhat dubious utility as a predictor of performance, since it's a function of an already questionable quantity - the STC. What the PTC and STC _should_ measure is well-defined: PTC
