Lightning Protection
Reduce the risk of lightning damage by using a single-point grounding system. In
this system, all ground lines terminate at the same point. This point normally is the
main utility ground installed by the utility company to provide a ground for the
house wiring. This ground usually consists of a copper rod driven 1.5 to 2.5
meters (6 to 8 feet) into the earth.
Routing the Wires
Typical
configurations Determine all wire routes to and from the GT Inverter. Typical routing
configurations include:
• AC wiring from the GT Inverter to the main utility service panel
• DC input wiring from the PV array to the GT Inverter
All wiring and installation methods should conform to applicable electrical and
building codes.
For all installations, local utilities may have additional requirements.
WARNING: Shock hazard
Check for existing electrical or plumbing prior to drilling holes in the walls.
