William,

Here is the language from the 2005 NEC:

690.35(D) The photovoltaic source and output conductors shall
consist of sheathed (jacketed) multi-conductor cables or
shall be installed in a raceway.

That is, it can be done either way. Gotta have ungrounded inverters
first--that may be a while.

Bill.

Bill:

I thought ungrounded systems would be allowed only if the wiring was run in 
conduit  (did I just make
another case for conduit wire--totally unintended I assure you).  I read 
the approved proposals which I remember clearly dictated conduit.  It would 
be time consuming for me to find these documents again, so please comment 
if you have specific knowledge.

Clarification, please?

Thanks,

William Miller
