Re: [RE-wrenches] IQ8: Envoy needed for California installations

You’ll need gateway for warranty.  Jay On Jan 21, 2025, at 6:31 AM, Dave Tedeyan via RE-wrenches <re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org> wrote:  Hi William,  I am 100% sure that the IQ7 would work without a Gateway. I am nearly sure that the IQ8's will as well. I'll sometimes turn the solar on before the gateway is fully installed just to test the strings, and the microinverters do seem to wake up. I am not sure what California might have to do with this, but I am in NY. The IQ8 standard grid settings are compliant with UL1741-SB as well.
