P8631 SOLAR MC4 INLINE FUSE 10A

These MC4 Fuses are suitable for off-grid power set ups and also permanent mounted solar set ups like those on 4WDs, caravans and boats. When combining solar panels in series or parallel, a sudden short-circuit or fault can cause massive current backflow, risking irreversible damage to your panels or even electrical fires. Theses inline fuses act as a safety bridge, clicking directly into your standard solar cabling via male/female MC4 plugs. Typically, they are installed on the positive cable of each panel before it links up to other panels or a solar regulator. If the current spikes dangerously, the internal fuse blows, safely isolating the panel and shielding your appliances. They are waterproof, dustproof and IP68 rated. Replaceable 10x38 internal ceramic fuse. EN50521:2008 approval suitable for AS/NZS 5033:2012 standard. Also available in 20A and 30A.

Features

• Plug-and-Play MC4 Compatibility: Features standard MC4 male and female plug connections on either end. It snaps directly into existing solar arrays without requiring any cutting, crimping, or specialized wiring tools.
• IP68 Waterproof: Built with heavy-duty weather sealing to survive harsh outdoor environments. It is completely dust-tight and can handle torrential rain, making it ideal for continuous exposure on vehicle roof racks or boat decks.
• Easy Fuse Replacement: If a fault occurs and the fuse blows, you don't have to discard the entire assembly. The waterproof housing unscrews easily so you can swap out the 10x38 ceramic fuse and get back up and running.
• Flexible Current Options: Available in three distinct maximum current ratings (10A, 20A, and 30A) to match different panel capacities. For instance, the 10A model is perfectly optimized for panels with a Short Circuit Current (Isc​) up to 8 Amps.
