It's really not worth it using copper cables, because they will lose 1 EU every 4 blocks. Considering that regular solar panels will only produce 1 EU/t, all the energy will be lost if using a cable longer than 4 blocks. The best alternative is to use tin cables, since they have very low energy loss and will tolerate up to 5 EU/t.
