HERO BTZ700 DC Fuse, 50A 700V Protection, for Photovoltaic (PV) Systems, Cylindrical Body, PN: BTZ700 50A - Pack of 4

HERO BTZ700 DC Fuse (50A, 700V)

The HERO BTZ700 DC Fuse is a crucial overcurrent protection device specifically engineered for direct current (DC) applications, especially prevalent in photovoltaic (PV) solar power installations. Rated at 50 Amperes and 700 Volts DC, this fuse delivers robust and fast-acting protection against overcurrents and short circuits within PV arrays, DC combiners, and inverter circuits. Its gPV (general purpose photovoltaic) characteristic ensures swift and reliable interruption of fault currents unique to DC systems, thereby safeguarding valuable electrical components and enhancing the overall safety and longevity of the PV system. The cylindrical form factor allows for convenient integration into standard fuse holders.
