Hello folks,
I am a solar designer with a solar contractor, and we are getting electrical bids from a subcontractor for a small commercial ballasted array on a flat roof with enphase microinverters.
The electrician we are talking to wants to use LFMC to connect the AC branch lines from the junction boxes at the end of each row, to our AC combiner on the roof. I am usually speccing at least IMC for roof conduit.
These runs are about 6 feet at most between points of connection, it is not a big roof. I'm not really comfortable with LFMC, not used to seeing it used this way, but seems like it is ok per NEC if properly supported.
Opinons?
Thanks for your input.
