ABB has introduced a new line of switches specifically designed for photovoltaic (solar) applications, the first two pole disconnect switches in the industry to achieve a 1000 VDC rating per UL 98B. This breakthrough in arc suppression technology delivers optimal performance with a new measure of simplicity and safety, occupying up to 50% less space while providing substantial energy savings and reduced wiring costs compared to switches currently available for solar applications.

Previously, switches for photovoltaic applications required up to six poles wired in series in order to break 1000 VDC. Achieving the 1000 VDC rating with a compact, two pole configuration provides the ideal switch for the solar industry, designed for use in combiner boxes for disconnecting individual arrays, and the inverter input for disconnecting the inverter from the DC side
