Step 7: Terminate the Unused End of the Cable
Terminate the unused end of the Enphase Q Cable as follows.
A. Remove 13 mm (½ inch) of the cable sheath from the
conductors. Use the terminator loop to measure 13 mm.
B. Slide the hex nut onto the cable. There is a grommet inside
of the hex nut that should remain in place.
C. Insert the cable into the terminator body so that each of the
two wires land on opposite sides of the internal separator.
D. Insert a screwdriver into the slot on top of the terminator to hold it in place, and use a torque
wrench or channel lock pliers to tighten the hex nut until the threads disappear. Torque to 7
Nm.
E. Hold the terminator body stationary with the screwdriver and turn only the hex nut to prevent
the conductors from twisting out of the separator.
NOTE:
Hold the terminator body stationary with the screw driver and turn only the hex
nut to prevent conductors from twisting out of the separator.
F. Attach the terminated cable end to the PV racking with
a cable clip or tie wrap so that the cable and terminator
do not touch the roof.
WARNING
: Never unscrew the hex nut.
Unscrewing the hex nut destroys the locking
feature, and you must replace the terminator.
