I know PV wire is rated for sunlight, but should the wire that is exposed directly to sunlight be covered for additional life?
I have red and black PV wire going into the weatherhead I installed which is under full sunlight. I was looking at getting some UV resistant split loom to cover it up, and expect to have to replace that every 5 years or so. But, should I bother?
As I understand, the red wire will bleach to white eventually, and generally any color other than black won't last as long.
