[RE-wrenches] PV Wiring methods

[frenergy]

Wrenches,

        ....too many to list that have offered insights and suggestions, thanks for all your input regarding wire management.  I'm going to order some of the suggestions given and also go back to more of my old installs and see how my past wiring methods are holding up.  Apparently the SS wire ties I was looking at from Grainger were gold plated!

        I appreciate all the input.

  Where are you buying them from?  I am so ready to move away from plastic zip ties.  59 cents is quite a bit, but that's actually doable.  Last time I looked at SS ties, they were a couple bucks each.

  Thanks,

    Bill.....we have been using the Hellerman Tyton Sunbundler cable ties....They are braided stainless steel wire with a UV resistant vinyl jacket....We have been getting them in quantities of 500 for approximately $.59 each....for the 12" length ties....We like them alot....they do not have any sharp edges and are easy to install.... 
    Hope that helps....
