Difference between THWN and THWN-2?
While I can''t say exactly what the inspector will agree with, I can say that THWN in conduit (rigid, EMT, pvc) should be acceptable. If you want to run the wire exposed it will need to be "-2" rated. I believe most panels have "-2" rated wire which terminate to an MC4 connector.

Should I use 10 AWG or 12 AWG Wires for solar?
10 AWG wires have a larger diameter and can handle higher current loads, making them suitable for systems with higher amperage requirements. 12 AWG wires, on the other hand, are thinner and more cost-effective but have a lower current carrying capacity.

How to best wire new panels
Those 60 cell solar panels are not considered 24 Volt nominal. They''re considered 20 Volt nominal. That being said, you want to wire all four of them in series if you want to charge a 48 Volt battery bank Hopefully your charge controller can handle the voltage Otherwise, I''d wire 3 in series and keep one off to the side, but you''d be better off wiring all
