FAQs
PV-80A-01XL-B uses a blade with bolt holes for a secure bolted connection, conforming to the 01XL-B fuse sizing. This design supports bolt-in installation, enabling robust mechanical mounting and reliable electrical contact in outdoor PV installations where vibration and thermal cycling are common. Compatibility is reinforced by the bolted-in standard and the centre fuse status indicator for quick checks.
The fuse is rated for 80 A and 1000 Vdc, with a 50 kAIC interrupt rating. This ensures fast protection for PV strings under overcurrent conditions while tolerating high fault currents typical of large arrays. The 1000 Vdc rating aligns with common PV system voltages, providing a safe margin for planning and safety margins for DC protection devices.
The PV-80A-01XL-B carries CE marking, RoHS compliance, UL Listed, and CSA Certified, with IEC 60269 alignment. These certifications verify safety, environmental, and performance standards, facilitating global procurement and reducing regulatory risk for installers and integrators across markets that mandate recognized fuse standards.
The center fuse status indicator provides a clear visual signal of fuse health, enabling faster fault diagnosis and reducing downtime during inspections. In commissioning and field maintenance, technicians can quickly determine whether the fuse link has operated, avoiding unnecessary replacements and enabling targeted servicing for solar power systems.
Plan for bolted-in mounting with blade connections, using the 217 mm length, 85 mm width, and 65 mm height enclosure footprint. Ensure proper torque on bolts to maintain secure contact, account for outdoor enclosure design, and verify compatibility with PV array wiring practices. The device’s 1.2 kg weight aids handling and supports stable mechanical installation in harsh environments.
