Installing a Solar Off-Grid System 19- MidNite Solar Combiner Box Explained

This is my step by step video series on how to install an off-grid stand-alone battery backup solar power system.
Here is a MidNite Solar Photovoltaic Combiner Box. This is also called a junction box, and has a Din rail allowing 6 x 15Amp breakers, so we can wire 6 "Strings" of panels.
System specs and major component parts:
48Volt Nominal System
4100Watt Solar Array (18 x 230Watt SoPray Polycrystalline Photovoltaic Solar Panels)
4400Watt 48V Magnum Pure-Sine Inverter,
Outback FM80 80Amp Charge Controller with MPPT
16 x L-16 6V Deep Cycle Batteries
Main Enclosure Panel (Custom API E-Panel)
MidNite Solar 6 String Combiner Box
ProSolar Roof Rack and Fast Jack Mounting

Dear lord that is one hell of a complicated solar setup.

[@pv48volts]

yeah, its about as complex as it gets for solar.. Im going to do a follow up on the project in a week.. they said it is running great still..

[@bensuddy96]

Is it possible to use the Midnite Solar PV combiner box as a distribution board. So the circuit breakers will be connected the other way around.

[@pv48volts]

Not sure what you mean by distribution board? What would you want it to do?

[@j.f.8502]

Is it necessary to ground the pv panels?
