German term or phrase: Strangverkabelung
In kleinen Anlagen werden je nach Modultyp für die Strangverkabelung 2,5 mm² (praktisch nur bei Dünnschicht) oder 4 mm², selten auch 6 mm²-Kabel eingesetzt.

This is photovoltaic systems. I have been using cable/cablingthroughout for Strang. So I can't have cable cabling?
Am I missing something?
Thanks
