Description:

Eaton’s Bussmann® series of 10x38mm,

1000Vdc PV fuses are for protecting and

isolating photovoltaic strings. The fuses are

specifically designed for use in PV systems with

extreme ambient temperature, high cycling and

low fault current conditions (reverse current,

multi-array fault) string arrays.

Four styles available for application flexibility.
