OK. Old topic. However wanted to clear something up.
Does polarized only allow current flow in one direction, or is this outdated information?
For instance: PV -> (combiner) -> SCC -> bus bar which feeds both batteries and inverter (hardware in between but a summary of flow)
In this case, would a polarized breaker prevent backflow from the inverter to the SCC? Or am I completely wrong here? There is a ton written about non polarized breakers and fire risks with polarized so perhaps this thinking is outdated?
My understanding is non polarized is bidirectional.
Thanks for your help
