Cylindrical fuse link PV CH10x38 gPV 25A 1000V DC 002625139

Photovoltaic installation safety – gPV series fuse links

Cylindrical fuse link CH10x38 gPV 25A 1000V DC is a protective element dedicated to photovoltaic installations. It provides protection against overload and short circuit in DC circuits, protecting both system components and the installation itself. Its design and characteristics have been optimized for the specifics of solar panel and inverter operation.

Characteristics and application

Fuse links from the gPV series are characterized by a high short-circuit breaking capacity (up to 30 kA DC) and a fast response to overvoltages, which minimizes the risk of damage. The gPV characteristic provides effective protection against the effects of errors in the operation of photovoltaic modules, such as electric arcs. This makes the installation more reliable and safe to use. The fuse link with dimensions of 10x38 mm and a rated current of 25A is ideal for protecting standard circuits in photovoltaic systems.
