Tigo Energy, Inc., pioneer of the smart Flex MLPE & TS4 Platform, and IronRidge, part of global solar racking company, Esdec, today announced the companies’ new Underwriter Laboratories (UL) 2703 listing of operational compatibility.
The listing includes Tigo’s Tigo Access Point (TAP) and TS4-A Add-on Platform of flexible module-level power electronics (Flex MLPE) with IronRidge’s Flush Mount racking components for residential, commercial, and industrial PV systems. The rigorous testing performed by UL met the necessary standards for certified safety this month.
