The difference between Photovoltaic Fuses Link and ordinary fuses

Photovoltaic Fuses Link is that photovoltaic-specific fuses are commonly used in solar power generation systems to protect solar panels and battery packs from overcurrent and short circuit damage. These fuses usually have higher interrupting and holding capacities to reliably disconnect the current when there is a fault in the system. In solar power plants, the design of Photovoltaic Fuses Link also needs special consideration due to space limitations and environmental factors, such as sealing performance and heat dissipation. Photovoltaic-specific fuses usually use high-strength alumina ceramics, which have high chemical stability, mechanical strength, and heat resistance to withstand high voltage and high-temperature environments. Additionally, high-strength alumina ceramics also have good insulation performance to effectively isolate the circuit and prevent electric shock and safety accidents.

In contrast, ordinary fuses are commonly used in buildings and machinery and typically only need to involve lower voltage and current levels. Furthermore, the material and design of the contact points in ordinary fuses may be different from photovoltaic-specific fuses to meet their different performance requirements. Since the current and voltage generated in solar power plants are larger, Photovoltaic Fuses Link requires higher performance contact materials to ensure the safety and reliability of the circuit.
