PULSA PV

installation manual

•  Position the Engage Cable to the right hand side of the centre of the panel so that 

connectors that are attached to the panels are not obstructed when fitting the Joule 

Pulsa panel to the mounting rail. 

•  Lay the Engage Cable along the route it will travel, positioning the connectors so 

that they align with the PV modules. 

Step 4 – Attach the Microinverters to the Mounting Rail 

Mount the Microinverters as per the diagram below. Ensure both that the Microin-

verter does not interfere with the PV module frames and that the AC connector from 

the Microinverter can easily reach the AC connector on the Engage Cable.
