The DC rated Battery Circuit Breaker (BCB) provides still overcurrent protection, if correctly coordinated, even though it is not as fast as the fuses. These breakers must be set at a safe intervention value
Learn More
As circuit breakers, they can provide motor branch circuit protection and can be used as a disconnecting means. The branch circuit protection is applied at no more than 80% of the continuous current values
