3) Over Current Circuit Protection
4) Multiple NEC compliant load break disconnects
5) Bentek Zone Current Monitoring
“Bentek Solar is currently shipping the FDSS into large utility-scale projects and is accepting new orders. The FDSS is currently being designed into several 100MW+ utility-scale projects throughout North America. We look forward to displaying the FDSS at SPI next month,” said John H.
