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

[Dave Angelini Offgrid Solar]

 Dana, I understand the need to use #6 in exposed places on the earth. I
have had inspectors require the same wire size that is used to the
battery. I have had them require the same size as the array wiring. I
have never seen them do what they are doing to you so thanks for the
info....  Be well!  --Dave
