6.  How to safely wire the RSD switch to the IQ System Controller 2? 
The Rapid shutdown terminals in IQ System Controller 2 (NC3 and NC4) carry a high voltage. 
Installers MUST ensure that the IQ System Controller 2 is powered off before performing any 
wiring. If IQ System Controller 2 is already energized, it should be completely discharged 
before  wiring  the  rapid  shutdown  switch.  The  instructions  for  discharging  the  IQ  System 
Controller 2 can be found in Annexure 1. For grid forming systems with IQ8 microinverters 
follow below instructions when wiring the IQ System Controller 2 RSD terminal to the Enphase 
System Shutdown Switch (EP200G-NA-02-RSD). 
Before wiring, it is recommended that the terminal block for RSD wires in System Controller 
be removed from the System Controller and plugged back in after the wiring is completed.
