Selling Policy 25-000 - Distribution and Control Products and Services
Six-pole configuration enables centralized isolation for multi-string PV arrays, reducing the number of separate disconnects and simplifying service. This consolidation improves installation speed and reduces cabinet footprint in outdoor electrical rooms, supporting solar DC disconnect strategies. Fusible protection safeguards conductors and inverters from DC faults, helping meet code requirements and reduce fire risk in photovoltaic installations. Grounded design and a 600 VDC rating minimize arcing and enhance operator safety during maintenance and testing, which is critical for high-voltage solar projects. The NEMA 3R painted galvanized steel enclosure delivers weather resistance and durable performance in outdoor environments, lowering replacement and maintenance costs over the system life. Flexible wire terminations (LC: #2-#14 AWG; SR: 1/0-#14 AWG) simplify field wiring, shrink install time, and improve configuration options for PV arrays. Field compatibility and the inclusion of dimension details in the product sheets support rapid site planning and repeatable installations.

FAQs
For DCG6061FRM, plan for a six-pole disconnect with fusible protection rated up to 30A per pole and a maximum of 600 VDC. Use the In/Out LC terminals for #2-#14 AWG and In/Out SR terminals for 1/0-#14 AWG. Mount in a NEMA 3R enclosure and ensure proper grounding. Include clear labeling and maintain required clearances around the device for safe operation.
Yes. The unit supports six poles with fusible protection and grounded operation for solar DC circuits. It accepts LC connections (#2-#14 AWG) and SR connections (1/0-#14 AWG), enabling flexible wiring layouts. Its 600 VDC rating aligns with common PV array strings, simplifying integration with inverters and combiner boxes while meeting NEC 690 requirements.
This disconnect aligns with NEC 690 through UL 1741 and UL 98B certifications, essential for solar PV protection and electrical safety. It also utilizes a NEMA 3R enclosure for outdoor service, delivering weather resistance. These certifications help ensure compliance, safer operation, and easier procurement within regulated installations.
The six-pole configuration consolidates isolation points, reducing hardware count and installation time, which lowers labor costs. Fusible protection minimizes fault propagation and potential inverter damage, reducing maintenance intervals. The rugged enclosure and grounded design enhance reliability in outdoor environments, delivering lower lifecycle costs and improved system availability.
The NEMA 3R enclosure offers weather-resistant protection, suitable for outdoor solar installations. Combined with grounded DC operation and 600 VDC rating, it reduces arc risk and supports safe maintenance practices. These features assist with code compliance, insurance considerations, and safer operation under real-world environmental conditions.
