Have grid-tie w/Battery back-up system under way. Due to changes beyond my
control, I am now faced with the possibility of placing two MNBE cabinets
underneath and to the side of inverter (Concorde batteries). I had always
avoided this practice but have choice of either that or very long cable
Holt,
It's OK. The Code sections that prevented putting batteries under
BOS equipment have to do with working clearance. You must be able to
walk up to the equipment to service it, and a large enclosure of
flooded batteries prevents that.

Why does the side mounted breakers make the Midnite non compliant?
Apparently I missed Robin's post on that.
Or do I not want to know?

. Midnite enclosures, with the breakers on the sides, are not compliant, as
Robin has acknowledged, but

I don't think Robin has posted anything, it just came in a

nothing interfering with designated working clearance, within a few
inches of depth allowed. With Outback, Magnum, and Xanschneider the

Can you elaborate?

Well, I think I got myself into trouble here. I do remember a recent
conversation with you about this - I think - and this is the message
I remember from that conversation - I think. Perhaps this is all in
my imagination. I am getting older, certainly, so
Jay, the original issue wasn't about the breakers being on the side;
it was about putting a battery cabinet underneath the disconnect
enclosure. If the cabinet sticks out too far, it violates working
