Distreo becomes Viridian Solar's exclusive distributor for ARCBOX in Romania and Hungary
October 2025 Fire safety for photovoltaic installations
Distreo announces a new strategic partnership with Viridian Solar , a leader in integrated PV solutions. Starting October 2025, Distreo is the exclusive distributor for ARCBOX in Romania and Hungary — an essential solution for reducing the risk of fire caused by electrical arcs in the DC connections of photovoltaic systems.
What is ARCBOX?
ARCBOX is a safety enclosure for DC connectors (MC4 type and compatible) that isolates and contains the electric arc caused by a loose or faulty connection, preventing it from spreading to combustible materials and starting a fire. It is quickly mounted, by clipping, and is compatible with most common field configurations (pitched roof, terrace roof, BIPV).
Why it matters for your PV projects
- Prevention : limits the consequences of an electric arc at the DC connector.
- Compatibility : non-invasive solution, adds to existing installations.
- Quick installation : no special tools required; clips around the connector.
- Verified quality : independent testing and widespread use in the EU/UK.
