Direct answer
A 1500V DC MCB is used in higher-voltage PV systems when the circuit current and breaking capacity fit the MCB range.
For larger combiner outputs, a DC MCCB may be more appropriate. We check circuit position before confirming the device family.

FAQ
Is a 1500V DC MCB always better than a 1000V device?
It should match the system voltage. A higher rating does not remove the need to check current and breaking capacity.
When should a DC MCCB be used instead?
Use a DC MCCB for higher-current combiner outputs or larger feeder circuits.
