The Suntree 20A 2-Pole DC Miniature Circuit Breaker (MCB) is purpose-built for protecting direct current (DC) solar circuits from overcurrent and short-circuit faults. Ideal for use in solar photovoltaic (PV) systems, this MCB disconnects both positive and negative conductors simultaneously to ensure safe isolation and system protection.
Its compact, DIN rail-mountable design makes it easy to integrate into DC combiner boxes or solar distribution panels. Engineered for high reliability and safety, it performs consistently even in harsh weather conditions and high-temperature environments.
