Hello,
First time here. New project involving off-grid solar upgrade. What is NEC code regarding the type of rating to use for solar battery cable? My technician prefers the SGT SAE J1127 Battery Automotive Cable. A colleague brought up NEC Code and proposed XLP/USE-2/RHH/RHW-2 WIRE cable. I am looking for 2/0 AWG in a shelter environment somewhere in Alaska. The first one has 1,254 strands of conductor and pretty flexible vs the second is only 19 strands. Thank you.
