Do you guys think that our host would spec out a system for a complete kit

Options
Here is what I am looking at ,to get started in spring.
5 sharp 230 watt panels
5 enphase 190 240
All the needed railing to connect the panels on metal roof.
All connectors to connect to branch circuit for the 240 volt.

and one envoy

This would be the first phase to install and in 6 months I would want to order the same configuration.

If anymore would want to comment, if they see something I am forgeting or making a mistake please call me out on it.

I alway like to hear your freebacks.

    we can start with the fact the pvs have a higher wattage rating than recommended for the inverter. you are upgrading in 6 months anyway so why not just get a single gt inverter and all necessary pvs later to mount all at once? this inverter was already discussed on other threads too and you should read it, but those inverters can present problems due to mounting outside in the elements and being able to see any failures and as such that many i would not recommend using them for i feel these are good for just a couple of pvs of the proper wattage. if you are determined to do it with enphase and that many of them you still need to size the right pvs with them.
