Hi,
I am using an MCC USB-1208LS to measure voltage from a solar array, the maximum voltage can reach 60V!! My card can only tolerate ±10V single ended and 20V differential... I'm not sure about the maximum input current (it is not mentioned in the datasheet).

My question is how to protect and/or isolate my DAQ card from high voltages and current (max current can be 6A)?? are there any other hazards i should be aware of???

BTW I'm gonna use the single ended mode since I need more channels.
As you can see I'm a student and has nooo clue at all :D
THank you guys in advance
