MERSEN HP15M5R
The Mersen HP15M5R is a GEN2 HelioProtection® gPV photovoltaic fuse engineered to protect 1500 VDC solar PV systems against overloads and short circuits. Designed to withstand the severe temperature variations and current cycling common in PV installations, this fuse delivers enhanced reliability through stringent cycle testing. With a low minimum breaking current of 1.35× In, the HP15M5R safely interrupts typical low-fault PV currents, making it ideal for grid-tied and off-grid solar applications.
