Why protection matters
Solar panels produce DC at voltages that can sustain an arc, so the DC side needs DC-rated isolators and fuses — an AC breaker is not a substitute. Surge protection on both sides protects the inverter from lightning-induced surges, which are common across the Highveld in summer. Your electrician will specify ratings to SANS 10142.
