Enphase Q Cable & Field-Wireable Connectors

• Two-wire, double-insulated Enphase Q Cable is 50% lighter than the previous generation Enphase cable
• New cable numbering and plug and play connectors speed up installation and simplify wire management
• Link connectors eliminate cable waste

Field-Wireable Connectors

• Easily connect Q cables on the roof without complex wiring
• Make connections from any open connector and center feed any section of cable within branch limits
• Available in male and female connector types

Enphase Q-Aggregator

Enphase Q Cable Design Flexibility

One of the inherent limitations of string inverter systems is the need to always complete a loop in the electrical design. With these DC power systems, there’s no opportunity to branch off to islanded arrays on complex rooftops or in response to on-the-fly design changes.

The field-wireable connectors designed for Enphase Q Cables in the IQ System allow for safe and simple connections from any open connector and the ability to center feed any section of cable up to a 20-amp limit. This flexibility in wire connections allows the system to be built as a tree with branches rather than a constricted linear design. The lighter two-wire Q Cable also makes it easier to handle wire management. To streamline the installation process, Q Cables may be fastened to rails or to the module frame using standard clips in a rail-less mounting system.

Enphase IQ Combiner Box

The IQ System replaces numerous electrical balance of system components with the Enphase Q-Aggregator supporting up to three branch circuits and accepting the same plug-and-play Q connectors that connect to the IQ microinverters.

Installers also have the option of using standard electrical components to transition branch circuits from the roof to the Enphase IQ Combiner Box with consolidated metering and networking equipment, including a preconfigured IQ Envoy communications gateway, at ground level. The IQ Combiner Box combines up to four electrical enclosures into one, eliminating the need for a separate subpanel, meter enclosure, Envoy enclosure, and AC disconnect, as well as all the hardware to connect these pieces together.
