INSTALLING THE MICRO INVERTER 

The following sections list steps on how to install the G320 micro inverter onto 

standard PV racking. 

Installing onto a PV Racking System 

Step 1: Measure the AC Service at the Site

 

Measure service entrance conductors to 

confirm AC service at the site. Verify the AC 

voltages at the  electrical utility connection and at the junction box for each AC 

branch circuit are within the ranges. 

 

Step 2: Install the AC Branch Circuit Junction Box 

2.1.

 

Mount the adapter plate to a 

suitable location on the PV 

racking system (typically at the 

end of a row of modules). The 

adapter plate must be installed 

with an appropriate junction 

box. 

 

2.2.

 

Connect the open wire end of the AC 

interconnect cable into the junction 

box using an appropriate gland or 

strain relief fitting. The AC 

interconnect cable requires a strain 

relief connector with an opening of 

3/8 inches in diameter. 

 

 

Step 3: Lay Out the AC Trunk Cable 

 

Place the AC trunk cable at the required location. Align the connector to the 

position  where the micro inverter will be installed. Then secure the cable on 

either side of the rack using cable clips or tie wraps. 

Note the G640 is the micro  inverter of the input of two photovoltaic panels. 

Please pay attention to fix the G640 in the middle of two photovoltaic modules 

when wiring. 

 

Step 4: Attach the Micro Inverter to the PV Racking 

4.1.

 

Note the approximate centers of each PV module on the PV racking. 

4.2.

 

Evaluate the location of the micro inverter against potential collection of   

moisture or water. 

4.3.

 

Evaluate the location of the micro inverter with respect to the DC junction 

box and the PV module frame. 

4.4.

 

Align the G640 so that the holes on the mounting bracket are above the slot 

opening on the PV racking and secure the micro inverter to the PV racking 

with screws. 

 

 

 

CAUTION    

Ensure that the inverter does not obstruct the PV module frame or 

stiffening  braces. Ensure the micro inverter’s AC connector can easily reach the 

AC trunk cable. 

 

Step 5: Ground the Micro Inverters 

[Option 1]: Integrated Grounding. Go to step 6. No additional grounding is 

needed. 

 

[Option 2]: GEC Grounding. Unscrew the top of grounding clips on the micro 

inverters. Run the grounding electrode conductor to each grounding clip on the 

Wire Connection  240V (Single Phase) 

L1 to L2 

193 to 242VAC
