Installation

Conduit holes/knockouts

Pre-plan the wire and conduit runs. Knockouts for 1.9 cm (3/4 inch) or 2.5 cm (1 inch) conduit holes are located on the bottom and back of the wiring box. Threaded 3/4conduit holes are located on each side of the wiring box (Figure 2-5).

For maximum safety, run AC, DC, and communication wires in separate conduits.

Planning AC Wire Routing

AC connections include all the wires and connectors between the GT Inverter AC terminals and the main utility service panel. Pre-plan these routes carefully before installing the components.

Planning DC Wire Routing

DC connections include all the wires and connectors between your PV array and the DC terminals of the GT Inverter. Pre-plan these routes carefully before installing the components.
