Some PV Panels now require a 20 amp series fuse (breaker). The MNPV12 can support ten high voltage 20
amp fuses or breakers. This combiner can accommodate all twelve positions when using 15 amp or less
breakers.
When selecting breakers for use with the MidNite combiners, first check with the PV manufacturer to
determine the proper “series fuse”. The term fuse is used even though you are probably using breakers. This
is a carry over from UL terminology.
MidNite Solar offers PV combiner breakers rated up to 150VDC and 300VDC. The 150V version come in
these current ratings. 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,12, 15, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 63. The 300V version is available in 10,
15, 20, 30 and 50 amps. Other sizes are available on special order.
Part numbers for breakers are as follows:
MNEPV10, MNEPV15, MNEPV20 etc for 150 volt breakers. Part numbers for 300 volt breakers are
MNEPV10-250, MNEPV15-250 etc.
