I use a 6-foot run of 10 gauge cable between my power supply (the Astron
RS-35M) and my K3S. With my Fluke DVM, I measured the voltage difference
between the power supply output terminals and the Power Pole terminals
inside the radio. The difference is only .03 or .04 volts under maximum
current
I had the same issue with my K3S. I was seeing 80W maximum on 160 and it
would not drive my AL1200 to full power (1500W). Redoing the power
calibration did not fix the issue.
Elecraft Tech Support told me that my K3S was within spec but that
increasing the power supply voltage could yield
Sorry, I forgot to add my call to my post below. It's W1FV (John).

My advice on Solar
My advice on Solar City is to avoid them at all costs. Their systems,
manufactured by SolarEdge, generate horrendous broadband RF noise. One of
my neighbors installed a Solar City system on his house and ever since, I've
been plagued with extremely bad RF noise, especially on 6m, whenever I beam
