[RE-wrenches] Looking for insulated #6 bare standoff

[whitley forman]

You should not have to run a EGC/GEC along the with Array Technologies. When I have installed these in the past we always mechanically bond within the bicinity of the conduit or box we are running our wiring through. No need to non-mechanically attach anywhere.

Why is it #6? Usually the solar panels wire size determine Array Teks size
for this wiring. What do they say please?  --Dave
