Conduit fittings need to be water tight with either a NEMA 4, 4X, 6, or 6X rating insulated type is
preferred.
Once conduit and fittings are installed, route wiring thru conduit and fitting and allowing a 6 inch
strain relief loop within the wiring box compartment.
Potential AC voltage loss in AC wires is possible to determine for a given wire cross section and
wire length. Pages 37-38 contain diagrams for each PVI inverter model to help determine the best
wire size for your particular installation. Solectria recommends you select a wire size and length
to ensure a maximum voltage loss between 1 - 2 %. Please note that the diagrams only offer ap-
proximate voltage loss and more precise voltage loss should be calculated by a licensed electri-
cian in accordance with local, state, and National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70 requirements.
