Prewired DC Distribution Panels
The prewired DC distribution panel consists of 15 amp DC circuit breakers, mounted in a MidNite Solar array combiner box. A ten foot, 6 ga. cable with lugs is wired in to connect to your battery bank. You or your electrician will connect two lugs to the battery bank and run your DC circuits into the circuit breaker box. The circuit breaker box accepts normal house wire (non-metallic sheathed cable) using standard non-metallic cable connectors. Your electrician or wiring inspector will be happy with this UL listed equipment. It is much easier to use and much higher quality than RV load centers.
Dimensions: Box 12.75”x 8” x 3.25”.

DC Circuit Breaker Boxes
| These small circuit breaker boxes are manufactured by MidNite Solar. They are ideal for small cabin DC distribution systems. They can also be used for Array and Controller disconnects. They require the DIN rail type circuit breakers. | |
757-019 Baby Box $36 This box holds four DIN rail mount DC breakers. It has a 3/4” or 1” knockout at each end. |
 |
757-013 Big Baby Box $45 This box holds four DIN rail mount DC breakers. It has two 3/4” or 1” knockouts and a 1/2” knockout at each end. Mounted inside is a ground lug and provisions for a short bus-bar. We use this box for our combo array and charge controller disconnect. |

Use these DC circuit breakers in the Baby Box and Big baby boxes listed to the left. They also fit in our pre-wired DC disconnect boxes as well as all of our pre-wired inverter systems. Because these breakers are rated for 10,000 amps interrupt current, you do not have to use a series fuse with them. They are rated for 150 VDC.

The circuit breakers listed below are rated for DC current as well as AC current. They fit in any of our listed circuit breaker boxes AC or DC. For use in AC circuits all that is needed is a main breaker and a breaker for each circuit. For DC circuits, however, a main switch/fuse box or at least a main fuse should be used between the battery bank and the DC circuit breaker panel. See our prewired DC main distribution panels.
