Now with an Integrated AC and DC PV System Disconnect Listed to the UL 98 Standard


AE delivers industry-leading reliability and technical innovations that lower the total cost of PV systems installation. We are now the only manufacturer of a residential inverter-integrated AC/DC PV system disconnect that is listed to the UL 98 standard. The UL 98 standard, called “Enclosed and Dead-front Switches”, ensures the integrated PV Powered disconnect meets all installation and inspection requirements of a PV system disconnect.

Housed within an NEC-compliant wire raceway, the innovative disconnect consists of one enclosure with generous working room for installation. In addition to providing for a single point of connection from the utility service and PV array, the wire raceway’s optimized knockout locations also provide options for side, bottom, and back entry with minimized conduit bending. The wire raceway enables flush side-by-side mounting, eliminating the need for extra equipment and resulting in a cleaner, less expensive installation.

Industry-Leading Reliability
  • Endurance tested to 20-year operating life
  • Lowest part counts and fewest interconnects eliminate common failure points
  • Field-proven technology with thousands of units installed

Integrated AC and DC PV System Disconnect
  • Listed to UL 98 standard for use with PV Powered UL 1741 listed string inverters
  • Robust testing of switch mechanism to UL 98 standard, called "Enclosed and Dead Front Switches"
  • Single AC/DC switch visible and lockable in the OFF position
  • NEC-compliant internal wire raceway enables flush side-by-side mounting
  • Direct-to-wall surface enclosure design allows for easy access and installation

Easy Installation
