So, is using the DC rated soladeck a violation? When I mentioned the specific AC rated soladeck to the company they said they talked to Soladeck and they said the DC can be used for the AC pass thru. It seems to me we should use the AC rated for this application and not the DC. Jesse Sent f

Hello, I am in the process of installing a Enphase system that requires center feeding the individual 15 modules circuits. I am wondering about wiring the J-Box. I need to cut all of the boxes into the center of the runs of Engauge cable and maintain the 6" of free conductor. To do this, I will
