Hi:
When deciding on voltage drops and otherwise
working out the design of a solar system, one
I have worked out the area under the daily bell curve. A 2% loss at max current
equals 1% loss average. Maybe this logic could allow some flexibility.

It should be noted that the NEC recommendations for feeder circuits are to
do with acceptable voltages at the load, i.e., you do not want your 208V
equipment running on 200V. PV circuits are not feeder circuits, voltage
drop is irrelevant. Power loss may be relevant, but only in terms of

I have 3 engineering firms and one in-house engineer that only use 1%
because in the NEC it is stated as a suggestion and not a requirement but
they take this as a must not exceed instead,

Some time back there was discussion on the conductor size and efficiency
rating requirement for long DC runs.
What I am looking at is this, 400 feet of MCM 400 to keep the line loss at
or below 1% per NEC code for an off grid application, cost vs return is not
acceptable. 2/0 is less than

Jerry,
A long distance wire run is practical now days using a high voltage controller.
Have a look at Schneider and Morningstar 600Vdc controllers. Not sure what you
mean by nothing can be changed but wire size” but you will have to rewire the
strings into series and protect the wire run.
