I'm trying to get a bid out to a client and this small matter of not wanting to tell them to run more pipe came up.
They are going to install, most likely, several #0 THHN conductors from a solar array combiner box back to where the charge controllers are located. Assuming they spec the same solar panels as on another job I know of, the maximum array voltage is about 110VDC and the maximum current in each of those probably #0's is 50 amps.
I need several pair of #24 for sensors on the roof and want to spec a Cat5 with CMR insulation (because it is cheap and in freakin' abundance ...) to go in the same piece of pipe, assuming the usual issues of conductor fill, etc. aren't exceeded.
Anyone see anything wrong with that?
