Frequently Asked Questions

Need help? Be sure to visit our support forums for answers to your questions!

Is YCB8125PV DC MCB suitable for outdoor photovoltaic systems?

Yes, YCB8125PV is designed for IP65-rated enclosures and can operate in -25°C to +70°C environments. It provides reliable DC circuit protection for outdoor solar panel arrays and combiner boxes. For specific installation guidelines, consult our technical manual or contact our support team.

Can this DC MCB protect against both overload and short circuits?

Absolutely. YCB8125PV offers dual protection:

Thermal-magnetic tripping for overloads (125A max)
Instantaneous trip for short circuits (10kA breaking capacity @ DC 1000V)

How do I determine if YCB8125PV is compatible with my existing DC system?

Check these parameters:

System voltage ≤ DC 1000V
Continuous current ≤ 125A
Ambient temperature within -25°C to +70°C
For complex systems, our engineers provide free compatibility analysis

Does it support remote monitoring via IoT systems?

The standard model provides mechanical trip indication. For IoT integration (Modbus RTU/RS485), ask about our YCB8125PV-S smart version with digital status feedback.
