The NEC requires PV wire in 690.35(D). If you are using transformerless inverters, you should also take a look at the other requirements of 690.35.

Ungrounded (transformerless) systems require PV wire, not USE2. PV wire is listed under the ZKLA category at UL. Go to the UL certifications page ( http://database.ul.com/cgi-bin/XYV/template/LISEXT/1FRAME/index.html ) and enter ZKLA in the "UL Category Code" box for a list of approved manufacturers.

 See ya!
