Enphase IQ8 Install and Operation Manual

IQ8 / IQ8+ / IQ8M / IQ8A / IQ8H Micro Installation and Operation

WARNING: Risk of electric shock. Risk of fire. Install sealing caps on all unused AC connectors as these

connectors become live when the system is energized. Sealing caps are required for protection against

moisture ingress.

NOTE: If you need to remove a sealing cap, you must use the Enphase Disconnect Tool. See Disconnect

a Microinverter” on page 27.

Step 7: Terminate the Unused End of the Cable

Terminate the unused end of the Enphase IQ Cable as follows.

A. Remove 13 mm (½ inch) of the cable sheath from the conductors. Use the

terminator loop to measure 13 mm.

B. Slide the hex nut onto the cable. There is a grommet inside of the hex nut

that should remain in place.

C. Insert the cable into the terminator body so that each of the two wires land

on opposite sides of the internal separator.

D. Insert a screwdriver into the slot on the top of the terminator to hold it in place and torque the nut to 7 Nm.

E. Hold the terminator body stationary with the screwdriver and turn only the hex nut to prevent the conductors

from twisting out of the separator.

NOTE: Turn only the hex nut to prevent conductors from twisting out of the separator.
