Post subject: | Fusing of solar panels in parallel |
I am installing a grid-tie battery-less system. I have: (14) BP MST45 panels. Vmp 75v Imp .6A Voc 101v Isc .78A Suntie 2500XRUPG My question is regarding the series fusing of putting all 14 panels in parallel. I know I should purchase a PV combiner to do the job, but I am looking to save alittle bit of money to make the budget for this project work out... My question is ... in order to meet code do I have to have a fuse for each panel? If so instead of using a PV combiner could I put an individual fuse at the postive terminal of each panel and then daisy chain the panels together? Thanks for any suggestions. Mike |
