PV Fuse Systems

Fuses for Photovoltaic Systems

PV Fuse Systems

With fuses from operational class gPV, which comply with the new standard IEC 60269-6, you can protect the entire structure of the PV system in the event of  defective modules or a short circuit. Cylindrical fuses up to 16 A (phase fuses) protect the PV modules and their connecting cables; the NH fuses of size 1 to 3L protect the elements of larger PV systems as group or cumulative fuses.

Highlights

  • Protection of the modules and module connection leads in case of reverse currents

  • Safe disconnection in case of fault currents reduces the risk of fire due to DC electric arcs

  • Protective separation when the fuse holder / fuse base is open


Fuse links for photovoltaic applications

The fuse links have a rated voltage of 1000 V and a high operational class of gPV for the protection of PV modules and their connecting cables.

Risk-free changing of fuses

Shock resistant cylindrical fuse holders or fuse bases with swiveling mechanism mean that the fuse can be changed safely.
