Is there a difference? Both work the same way.

High voltage DC disconnect should be enclosed in metal and should use knife type contact with long enough travel to break the arc. Those...

I've actually tested those Jotta breakers. The problem with all these DC breakers is that they don't have a snap turn on. I'd be...

It should be rated at a voltage slightly higher than the maximum normal voltage expected.

What size SPD should I use ??

many kind thanks for your reply

Yes to all. As long as the conductors are sized for the MPPT maximum output. Yes On each PV circuit near the SCC.

I am slowly gathering the necessary items to add solar to my off-grid system. today's questions concern before and after a MPPT...

As promised Brass bus size as per my cabinet 38mm x 5mm thick A few photos as well as requested

No finger plastic. I know the ones you mean though. my brass bars are covered in heat shrink (as per the description I gave above)

I am yet to go to my workshop where my cabinet is, BUT from memory, I would say the brass buss bars that I have in my cabinet are one...

I will assume you meant thread stripping in copper. In that case they should have gone more narrow and thicker rather than switching to...

from what I gather, fogstar used brass to help with thread stripping in the brass

Just a up-date Ben was good enough to respond to my Email today (a Sunday) he said he was happy to send me out the copper bus bars

I will get the dimensions and a few photos when I am next at my workshop, sorry but it's the weekend and I don't like close by to where...

perhaps Ben@fogstar might wish to comment via this thread, as he is on our forum...

The standoffs are not an issue, but if the buss bars are brass instead of the nickel plated copper in their sales info, you need to give...

At that low voltage , any distance is fine. Basically, just not touching is good enough.

If you have that much amperage then you have enough panels in parallel that each string should be fused. If you have enough amperage to...

If you are in the UK and those are listed as copper, but actually brass, do you have a consumer protection agency you can contact? And...
