Six-pole design enables true multi-string isolation, reducing the need for multiple single-pole disconnects and simplifying field wiring. The business impact is faster commissioning, fewer miswiring events, and safer maintenance in large solar arrays where every fault path must be clearly isolated. This configuration supports independent string access and a clean shutoff path, making it well suited for rooftop and ground-mount PV installations with diverse inverter layouts and string currents. Fusible protection provides a defined fault path and arc-reduction benefits, improving safety margins and aligning with NEC 690 requirements for PV disconnects. The device is rated at 30A and 600 VDC, which covers a wide range of standard PV string currents while maintaining a compact footprint suitable for enclosure-integrated layouts. This combination reduces the risk of cascading faults and minimizes fire hazards during maintenance. An all-stainless, NEMA 4X enclosure housed in 316 stainless steel delivers outdoor resilience against rain, dust, and corrosion. This enclosure choice minimizes corrosion-related downtime and extends service life in harsh environments, reducing total cost of ownership for utility-scale and commercial solar projects. The rugged construction also supports outdoor installation in harsh environments and long-term reliability in harsh climates. Compatibility with a broad wiring range is enabled by main-lug terminals: In/Out(LC): #2-#14 AWG, In/Out(SR): 1/0-#14 AWG. This wire-range flexibility allows straightforward integration with existing PV combiner boxes and string wiring, while the grounded, six-pole architecture helps avoid floating conductors and simplifies ground fault management. The product’s 316 stainless shell also supports frequent opening and closing cycles in dusty sites. Compliance, serviceability, and maintenance considerations are supported by NEC UL 1741 and UL 98B certifications, plus the NEMA 4X enclosure rating that certifies outdoor protection. The Eaton warranty policy provides one year from installation or eighteen months from shipment, whichever comes first, ensuring support during early lifecycle phases. Real-world installers benefit from clear dimension tables and product notes that guide configuration for non-standard ampere ratings or circuit counts.

FAQs

Wire the unit using In/Out(LC) for #2-#14 AWG conductors and In/Out(SR) for 1/0-#14 AWG as specified. Ensure the six poles are properly bonded to the grounded system, observe correct polarity, and tighten lugs to Eaton torque recommendations. Use fuse protection as configured for fusible operation and verify UL 1741/UL 98B compliance during commissioning.
DCG6061FXM carries NEC 690 requirements per UL 1741, UL 98B, and a NEMA 4X enclosure. These certifications confirm safe operation with solar PV systems, ensure fire and electrical safety standards are met, and guarantee outdoor, rain-resistant protection that supports code compliance for commercial installations.
Yes. The enclosure is NEMA 4X and constructed from 316 stainless steel, delivering outdoor resistance to rain, dust, and corrosion. It is designed for rooftop and ground-mount solar applications exposed to harsh weather, aiding reliability and reducing maintenance costs in challenging environments.
LC terminals accept #2-#14 AWG, while SR terminals accept 1/0-#14 AWG. This range supports flexible string wiring and easy integration with existing PV combiner boxes, inverter inputs, and distribution segments, simplifying field design and reducing ignition and fault risks.
The product carries Eaton’s warranty policy 25-000: one year from installation or eighteen months from shipment, whichever occurs first. This provides coverage during early lifecycle stages, with Eaton support for repairs, replacements, and guidance on configuration and maintenance to maximize uptime.
