currently doing more sodding domestic work than i would like Guinness
anyways.... im doing a rewire for my friend, its a house he's going to be in for a long time to come, so all the gadgets are going in. he wants to allow for future pv, i am currently reading up on these matters but im the first to admit its not my forte, especially in terms of regulations. its a 4story building with a loft extention, the only place for an inverter to go is right down in the celler/mains room. There is a simple enough route from the loft space aside the loft extention through 3 other floors. im wanting to leave the job neat/finished off to a square edge, so im not beyond buying some dc isolators.
q1) can you just run DC cables from panels through a house behind studwalls (more than 50mm), or do they need to be in trunking/conduit/adaptaflex?
q2) im going to use 6mm 1000v tuv rated double insulated stuff, is that ok or can i use something else?
q3) i know it needs an isolator next to the inverter but would it need one in the small loft space too for maintaining panels?
cheers for the patience
