    Hi ws,

    In this installation manual, the right photo on page 1 shows what I believe is this exact GFI assembly mounted in a remote Combiner:

    Yes, it is a good idea to install a high-quality Surge Protector, like the MidNite MNSPD line of protectors.

    My opinions, FWIW, Vic

    actually what I want is a box that holds 5 mnepv breakers and a mndc gf63 and a lightning bulb. I dont think the 6 will hold all that....do you know a cheap one that will??

    OK, ws,

    So, if your PV string configuration can use 150 V MNEPV breakers, how about the MNPV8 Combiner (?):
