Yes, we could do that.......however during instances of testing, trouble shooting, or in the event of a fire it can be helpful to have a wayto quikly disconnect the inverter from the combiner/fusing *at* the array. In most standard electrical work having a disconnect located not in line of sight from location of work leads to lock out/ tag out procedures....I see no difference here. It prevents one from having an inverter/disconnect from accidentally being turned on when you are working on the roof out of sight from a homeowner trying to help, or a co worker not paying attention.
