Chausson 610 solar panel install

[Gaztech63]

Has anyone fitted a solar panel to a chausson flash 610, what cable run did you use, or is there any factory fitted wiring to connect to? Any advice would be appreciated.

Not to a Chausson but just removed a single 120W and fitted four panels to the roof. I would suggest you take a look at Onboard Energy, (see Discounts).They do Victron panels, 4mm and 6mm solar cable etc and if you have a question they are helpful on the phone too.

I would imagine if there was any pre-wiring to the roof, there would be some kind of cable cap on the roof visible?

For cabling, I'd probably go for 4mm cable tops unless you are installing a lot of PV wattage. If you were to install something like a Victron 100/20 (good for upto 290W) or a Victron 75/15 (good for upto 220W), you will find the 6mm Cable a right faff to fit. 4mm cable is fine for just about any array you are likely to be able to fit on your roof.
