My array is 420 feet away and I'm glad I used conduit because I will be adding more wires this summer.
I've used XLPE direct burial for service cable. Over time I wished I had instead ran conduit. It's a tossup when it comes to price, XLPE normally runs about twice the cost of THWN. One needs to weigh the cost of conduit and serviceability.
One can cheat and use non perforated drainage tile, farmers around here use if all the time with XLPE wire inside when running from building to building. It beats digging up the whole yard when a problem occurs.
