Hello All,
I have been away for so long...i have been busy with bust computers, fitting solar panels, collapsed marriage and a bit of courting in no particular order!
Now we have a large pv job to look at that requires a 300mm sub main installing. The boss has priced it at £15000 for the cable (swa). To do it in equivalent amperage Aluminium singles in duct is less than £4000.
So the question is, what is the catch and how come everyone does not do the big stuff in aluminium?
