Does anyone know which table I should be looking in to calculate the current carrying capacity of 4mm PV cable and also how to do the derating calc for the Non conformities in my MCS inspection?
I installed a 6 panel Mitsubushi system with the +ve and -ve legs of the string measuring 15m each, run in PVC conduit.
Two of the points this installaion was pulled for are
1/ No DC Cable de-rating factors available to view as per DTI guide 2/. No DC Cable volt drop calculations available as per DTI guide
All I've got is:
The Voc = 30.6v x 6 x 1.15 = 211.14v stc
The Isc = 8.13 x 1.25 = 10.6 Amps (as there's only one string!)
Segen used PV Sol for me and calculated 0.83v volt drop
I'm embarrassed to say, I dont know which table I should reference in 7671. I asked Napit and they weren't sure!
Please Help!
Regards Paul
