Step 5: Use The Serial Number Labels To Create The Installation Map; Step 6: Mount The Ac Modules - enphase IQ7 Installation And Operation Manual

Step 5: Use the serial number labels to create the installation map

The Enphase installation map is a diagram of the physical location of each module in your PV installation.
Copy or use the blank map to record module placement for the system or provide your layout if you require a
larger or more intricate installation map.
Each AC Module, IQ Gateway, and Enphase battery has a removable serial number label. Build the installation
map by peeling the serial number labels from the modules and placing the labels on the map. You will also
place the IQ Gateway (required) and IQ Battery (optional) serial numbers on the map after installation.
After you have created the installation map, use the Enphase Installer App to record serial numbers and
configure the system.
For more information, refer to "Detect the microinverters" in the help topics of the Enphase Installer App.
A. Remove the label from each module before passing it up to the roof. Apply the label to the proper
position on the installation map.
B. Peel the label from the IQ Gateway (and IQ Battery, if installed) and affix it to the installation map.
C. Always keep a copy of the installation map for your records.

Step 6: Mount the AC Modules

A. Install the AC Module with a clearance of at least 10 cm (4 in) from the roof. Also, make sure that the
microinverter on the underside of the AC Module is at least 1.9 cm (0.75 in) away from the roof or
installation surface.
B. Do not place the AC Modules in such a way that places pressure on the microinverter. The minimum
distance from the top edge of the module to the rail should be about 30 cm (12 in).
C. Make sure that the minimum gap between modules is 10 mm (0.4 in) or greater.
D. Check that rails and clamps are clear of the microinverter by at least 3.8 cm (1.5 in). Do not obstruct
module drain holes.
