Re: [RE-wrenches] SW series fuse rating

Rebekah I am not 100% sure but I think that there is often confusion between max fuse and max reverse current. When you list a module you request a fuse rating , in this case 4 A and UL will test it by applying a max reverse current of 1.75(max fuse rating) or 7 Amps with out a fuse to insure tha

Reverse current and max series fuse are not always the same, check out this Solar Frontier manual, pg 3: http://www.solar-frontier.com/eng/cs/groups/co_en_product/documents/document/mdaw/mdey/~edisp/c012760.pdf Rebekah Hren On Mon, Mar 21, 2016 at 3:58 PM, Kristopher Schmid wrote: > I just di

I just did a class exercise using the upcoming sw290 for sizing conductors and OCPD and the calculation was such that a 20 amp fuse was needed (rounding up from Isc x 1.56). I hope that the maximum reverse current on the spec sheet is also the maximum series fuse rating. Kris On Mar 18, 2016 8:56
