I learned in a Xantrex GT training (way back) that their 36" bottom
clearance requirement was to avoid [most] lawn sprinklers, so that may
be the case here too. I'd still plan for it to be high enough to avoid
any basement flooding and to remain easy to access. May be worth
discussing with SMA ahead of time in case the AHJ complains about it
during the field inspection.

Great thanks. SMA says 36" to the bottom of the disco so will go with
that.

Hi Adam,
To the best of my knowledge there is no minimum height specified
in the NEC. However, many inverter manufacturers specify a minimum
height. You’ll need refer to the manual for that.
Best, August

Hey Wrenches,
We are installing some inverters in a basement where the height we
hang them at is limited by some windows. I'm trying to find a code
reference that says how far off the ground the DC/AC disco on the
inverter needs to be but am not finding one. Could be that they
are in the 3' range. Not ideal but might be our best option.
Anyone know where I could look up compliance?
Thanks
Adam
