Eaton Tag Fuse, 160A Current, 1500V Voltage - PV-160A-2XL-3BU-15
This tag fuse protects and isolates photovoltaic array combiner and disconnect circuits within high‑voltage solar installations. Designed for PV systems, it interrupts low overcurrents typical of faulted arrays and is intended for integration with compatible fuse bases and extraction tools.
Features & Benefits
• 1500V rating ensures compatibility with high‑voltage solar arrays
• 160A current rating provides adequate circuit protection
• Fast‑acting construction limits energy let‑through during faults
• 167mm fixing centres enable accurate panel and combiner mounting
• 2XL body size allows interchangeability with larger layouts
• Revised bolting pattern permits use without dimensional changes
• 160A current rating provides adequate circuit protection
• Fast‑acting construction limits energy let‑through during faults
• 167mm fixing centres enable accurate panel and combiner mounting
• 2XL body size allows interchangeability with larger layouts
• Revised bolting pattern permits use without dimensional changes
Applications
• Suitable for protecting inverter input circuits on utility‑scale arrays
• Ideal for overcurrent protection in PV combiner boxes
• Can be used for isolation in multi‑string photovoltaic fault scenarios
• Ideal for overcurrent protection in PV combiner boxes
• Can be used for isolation in multi‑string photovoltaic fault scenarios
What interrupting behaviour can I expect under reverse current faults?
The fuse is capable of interrupting low overcurrents associated with reverse currents and multi‑array faults, minimising sustained fault contribution.
Which holder and extraction tools are compatible for safe replacement?
Compatible XL fuse bases and SD‑series extraction handles are specified for mounting and removal
select the appropriate SD handle for the 2XL body size.
How does the bolting pattern affect retrofits in existing equipment?
The bolted variant adopts a revised pattern matching larger body sizes, permitting use of this 2XL type in layouts designed for the larger bolt spacing without changing enclosure dimensions.
What operational class and standards apply to its use?
It conforms to PV‑specific fuse classes for photovoltaic service and meets recognised IEC/UL standards for photovoltaic fuse links.
