FAQs
Follow the product's mounting footprint and ensure the enclosure is secured to a stable surface. Use In/Out(LC) terminals for #2-#14 AWG conductors and In/Out(SR) for 1/0-#14 AWG. Verify 600 VDC rating and proper fusible configuration, then connect the system with the grounded, isolated-return setup to meet NEC 690 requirements.
It is a 30A, three-pole DC disconnect rated for 600 VDC, with fusible protection and a grounded, isolated-return design. The unit supports In/Out(LC) #2-#14 AWG and In/Out(SR) 1/0-#14 AWG conductor sizes, and is intended for solar photovoltaic applications in a NEMA 4X enclosure.
Yes. The enclosure is 304 stainless steel with a NEMA 4X rating, designed to withstand outdoor rain, dust, and corrosive environments. This makes it well-suited for rooftop or ground-mounted PV installations where weatherproof protection and durable construction are essential.
The unit complies with NEC 690 as referenced by UL 1741 and UL 98B, ensuring safety and performance in PV applications. The NEMA 4X enclosure adds exterior protection, while the fusible function provides built-in overcurrent protection aligned with industry standards.
With stainless steel construction and a sealed NEMA 4X enclosure, maintenance needs are low, reducing downtime and service costs. The integrated fuse and isolated return improve safety, potentially lowering incident-related losses. The unit’s documented dimensions and weight also aid in predictable installation planning, contributing to faster project delivery and a favorable return on investment.
