Take note of the voltage ratings on fuses when putting them inline between the solar panels and controller. The rating for many fuses is 36 or 48 volts, since a higher voltage could cause arcing that would defeat a blown fuse. There are inline fuses with higher voltage ratings, you just have to seek them out.
