<br>

Some in-line glass fuses and holders are not rated for 48 VDC.  The 
midnite 1 Amp breaker is an good option like Ray said but sometimes I 
prefer to use a fuse so it doesn't get accidentally shut off or so I can
 bury it behind a panel so the customer doesn't have too easy access.<br>

<br>

So If I have easy access to a place to mount DIN Rail such as in a 
Midnite E-Panel - then I use a <a 
href="https://www.solar-electric.com/mnts.html?gclid=Cj0KCQiAkePyBRCEARIsAMy5Scu3bFcDAmHic0cs474Z2qnMm2p9nBF_8QvdPVIHMsSTTbha6YxfoSAaApauEALw_wcB">midnite
 touch-fuse holder</a> and a 1 amp fuse.  Or you can get them at any 
supply house like <a 
href="https://www.elecdirect.com/fuse-holders-circuit-breakers/fuse-holders-midget-type-cc/1-pole-din-rail-fuseholder-for-cylindrical-fuses-32a/?geoip=us&amp;ppc_keyword=&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQiAkePyBRCEARIsAMy5ScuTspGai2lMi3lC3xafB5aVIWTESwIjoDp-eSKVH38U8s7YzlF1i-UaAizzEALw_wcB">this.</a><br>

<br>

And of course it's easy enough to add a piece of DIN Rail to the back of
 any panel.<br>

<br>

I like using this approach for fusing 24 V power supplies running the 
monitoring equipment too - again so they don't get easily shut off.<br>

<br>

Hope that helps.<br>

<br>

Best,<br>

<br>

Wrenches,
  <br>

  <br>
It seems that inline fuse holders and glass fuses are becoming hard to 
find. What is a good way to protect 48 V DC control and instrumentation 
wires?
  <br>

  <br>
Thank you,
  <br>
