Going to the course WB?

And the Colour for the PV  cable from & to is ?

Grounded is Black and White
Ungrounded is Red and Black

And grounded is the Panels must be so is it the panels are /must be grounded Or is it Black & white , BUT the Neg battery led is also grounded SO , Red should never be used !!
Read the CEC book? clear as mud .
Black is a hot In AC & so is Red , BUT white is neutral & the same potential as ground  but the white is now DCV hot or positive.
Another Cluster coming .

Sorry spelling repaired , I do like Auzi & euro wire colour codes ..

VT

Edit add :
It now needs a book for trying to keep all the correct info & codes straight.
I swear the ones who write these , are not in favour of RE or the folks involved.
