We just had our solar and battery install trip on the cu.
It was a 32a breaker. Having looked at the manual for our inverter it actually states this should be 100a breakrr and the cabling should 13mm². I can't seem to find this size wire when I look on uk sites. Is it non standard in the UK.
The cables that were used I assume were sized to the 32a breaker, its grey cable, its width longer than its height. How can I identify what gauge cable they've actually used?

There is no 13mm² cable. Nearest sizes are 10mm² and 16mm², both of which are grossly oversized for a 32A circuit.

Here's the inverter manual. We have a battery to charge also.
