Cooper Crouse-Hinds continues to expand its offering of Solar Combiner Boxes which now meet UL1741 for use in grid-tied solar photovoltaic (PV) systems.

The broad product offering of combiners from Crouse-Hinds groups input wires and circuits from several arrays or solar panels into one main buss or feed going to the inverter, ultimately minimizing labor and material costs. Safe and dependable Solar Combiner Boxes meet National Electrical Code (NEC) wire bend requirements, offer ample wiring room and flexibility and provide over-current and short-circuit protection.

With a wide range of innovative solutions, these industry-leading solar combiner boxes are third party certified to UL1741 and available in a range of up to 36 strings rated for 600V and 1000V in a number of enclosure materials and finishes.

They are available with a number of options including factory supplied fuses, integral disconnect switches up to 400A, surge protection, DC string monitoring, pre-wired solar cable whips and factory supplied enclosure entries to match customer needs and provide the highest material and labor savings.

The combiners complement other existing Cooper Crouse-Hinds products including 37-48 string combiners, "small line" combiners, recombiners, pass-through boxes, stand alone DC disconnect switches, solar harness assemblies and solar cord grips.

"With the solar market continuing its rapid expansion, customers seek convenient and reliable solutions to meet their wire-management needs," said Grant Gawronski, President, Cooper Crouse-Hinds.

"Our extensive range of options combined with our manufacturing and customization capabilities allow us to offer the most complete solar combiner products in the industry."

The Cooper Crouse-Hinds third-party certified offering of Solar Combiners are part of an expansive and ever-growing selection of products from Cooper Industries designed to provide real customer value.
