Enphase IQ8 Install and Operation Manual

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

The Cabling System is flexible enough to adapt to almost any solar design. To determine the cable type, you need,

apply the following considerations:

• When mixing PV modules in both portrait and landscape orientation, you may need to transition

between cable types. See the preceding table for available cable types.

• To transition between cable types, install a Field Wireable connector pair.

• In situations where portrait modules are widely spaced, you may need to use landscape spaced

cables for the portrait-oriented PV modules and create loops of excess cable, if needed.

WARNING: Do not form loops smaller than 12 cm (4.75”) in diameter
