PV installations are becoming larger, more powerful and more efficient - and SIBA has just the fuses that they need for protection. As the energy transition continues to develop at pace, we are now seeing not only more solar power systems but also ever larger and more powerful installations of this kind. PV systems set up on interconnected apartment blocks or on industrial and commercial estates are now operating at increasingly high AC voltages of up to 800 V. Some of the solutions being developed here have even higher voltage ratings than this. These systems naturally place much higher demands on electrical safety than a small domestic installation, for example. And we have targeted our new range of products specifically at these mid-sized units. They provide protection for the latest generation of string inverters. Modern inverters operate at AC voltages of 800 V and more. This makes for smaller-section conductors, which in turn saves on valuable copper and reduces power losses. SIBA fuses are effective at preventing damage to modern equipment of this kind. They therefore help reduce the BOS costs. New inverters also cut down on the material and installation costs associated with BOS (balance of system = all the PV components apart from the panels). They achieve this because they can be fitted with more compact switches and control cabinets. Ultra rapid: gRL class Standard types NH00, NH1, NH2, NH3 – but offering a higher current rating for the same size. Cylindrical type 22 x 65 mm: the first fuse on the market to provide this level of performance in such a compact package.
