Overview

Mersen HP15G2-1/2CC-B is a 1500VDC photovoltaic (PV) fuse engineered for ground fault and string fault protection in off-grid or grid-tied PV systems. This specific model, the HP15G2-1/2CC-B, is rated at 2.5A. It features a minimum breaking capacity (MBC) of 1.35 times its rated current, ensuring safe interruption of the low fault currents commonly encountered in PV arrays. The fuse is equipped with a Crimp Cap terminal, which facilitates solderless wire-to-fuse connections. This design is particularly advantageous for in-line applications and is ideal for overmold encapsulation processes. The HP15G2-1/2CC-B holds certifications from both UL 2579 and IEC 60269-6, underscoring its compliance with stringent industry standards. Its robust construction allows it to withstand continuous temperature fluctuations and current cycling, contributing to enhanced system longevity. Designed specifically for inline PV module protection, this fuse is built to meet the demanding requirements of harsh PV environments. For models rated up to 4A, including this 2.5A version, it offers a substantial 50kA interrupting rating (IR). For 5A models, the interrupting rating is 10kA. The HP15G2-1/2CC-B is available in bulk packaging, specifically a 70-pack, making it a convenient option for large-scale installations. This fuse is optimized for reliability and performance within 1500VDC PV systems.
