This is probably a stupid question to those who know but I am trying to learn.
In a previous post I made, the concern about AFCI came up. So the more I looked into that, the more I think I need protection because my panels will be on my roof.
So my question is,
Why couldn’t I just put an mc4 inline fuse on each panel? Wouldn’t an arc cause the fuse to blow and disconnect it from the other panels and isolate from the rest of my array?
Like I said, maybe a stupid question to those in the know, so please go easy on me
Thanks
