10mm as the cost differential between that and 6mm isnt that great anyway... what do your calculates state ??
 
Just after help from you guys before i speak to my electrician tomorrow.

Sorry if the question is stupid, just want to make sure all of my work is done correctly.
 
Its not that there stupid questions, its hard to evaluate if your trade or end user, looking at your user name it would suggest your trade, but appears not.

Isolaters almost any of them as long as they are IP rated.

Cable CSA will depend, but i suspect 10mm.
 
Your electrician will be able to tell you what size cable to use. Tell him that it's a good idea to work on 1% volt drop.

Also, the AC isolators will need to be lockable in the off position only - a PV specific requirement.
