1 DIN HV Distribution DIN HV fuses are partial-range high voltage currentlimiting fuses for use in distribution circuits from kV. Their compact dimensions and non-venting characteristics make them ideal for restricted enclosures. DIN HV fuses have excellent short circuit performance and good low overcurrent clearing capability. When used in combination with fusible switches with fuse-activated trip feature, full range clearing capability is achieved. True full-range fuses are available in certain voltage and amp ranges. Please contact Fusetek for more information. Features! Highly standardised DIN dimensions.! Excellent short circuit performance. Ceramic bodies, pure silver elements.! '30' series fuses have temperature sensitive striker to protect against extended overload conditions, or external overheating.! Sealed for indoor or outdoor use.(on Driescher products - use 'F' suffix on part number)! Striker pin can be used for visual indication or to actuate a 'trip all phase' mechanism.! High amp ratings available for larger installations. DRS factory paralleled configurations available.! Fully plated parts for cool running. Installation Notes 1. DIN fuses are partial range devices with a minimum interrupting rating. Care must be taken to ensure that anticipated currents below the fuse's minimum breaking current (m.b.c) are cleared by other devices. In this regard, DIN fuses are similar to ANSI - 'E' rated fuses. Full range DIN fuses are available in limited voltage and amp ranges. Please contact our offices for information. 2. When DIN fuses are used in conjunction with a trip-all-phase-device, the minimum breaking capacity of the switch or contactor must be equal to or greater than the m.b.c of the fuse. 3. Voltage ranges specified are minimum and maximum voltages for safe operation. The normal +/-10% utility tolerance on voltage must be taken into account when selecting a voltage range. 4. When replacing fuses in the field, ensure that contact clips are clean and free of corrosion, dirt, grease etc... Ensure that the fuse clips still have good tension. (if the fuse will spin easily in the fuse clips, the clips have lost their tension and should be replaced) 5. Fuses should be replaced in sets of three to avoid nuisance blowing caused by element damage.

2 Dimensions All DIN fuse share common end fittings which fit into 45mm fuse clips. The only dimensional variables are the body length (L) and body diameter (D). As this varies depending on voltage, amperage and other factors, please refer to the tables in this section for D and L dimensions. Striker pins meet industry and DIN requirements for force/travel and can be used for mechanical actuation or visual indication. Transformer application The fuse ratings recommended in the following tables have been chosen with the following conditions in mind:! Fuses must pass normal primary winding magnetising inrush currents: These are taken as 12x the normal full load current(flc) at.1 sec, and 25x FLC at.01 sec. Certain applications may require the use of a higher fuse rating. Please contact FUSETEK with application details.! After a sustained power outage, the fuse must be able to withstand an overload of approximately 6 x FLC for 1 sec. and 3 x FLC for 10 sec.! The maximum voltage rating of the fuse must be equal to, or greater than the maximum line-to-line system voltage. Capacitor application Refer to capacitor selection chart on page 44. Be sure to consider the switching options and proximity of other banks when establishing a base FLC to apply.

8 E Rated Distribution fuses FC series power fuses are current limiting partial-range fuses usually used for fusing the primary windings of medium voltage distribution transformers and associated distribution circuits. Their high degree of current limitation greatly reduces the thermal and mechanical stresses imposed on system components during a short circuit. They can be used indoors or outdoors in a suitable enclosure and conform to standard N.American dimensions. E Rating Defined Features! General purpose 'E' rated characteristics.! Pure silver elements! Fully plated metal parts for cool running.! Excellent current limitation for substantial reduction of short circuit stresses.! Blown fuse indicator pin for visual indication or mechanical actua tion (except 2" body)! All D case (3" diam.) fuses can be supplied hermetically sealed and without indicator for use in Hazardous location applications. 100E or less: Fuse must open in 300sec at % of its rated current over 100E: Fuse must open in 600sec. at % of its rated current. Thus, fuses with identical E ratings will provide similar overload protection and coordination with transformer and other protective devices. Companion Products Standoff insulators, fuse clips and bases. Please see accessories section in rear of this section. For other ratings and designs, please contact Fusetek. Retrofitting Fusetek power fuses are dimensionally compatible with and interchangeable with other manufacturers' fuses having the same dimensions and ratings. Standard 'E' rated characteristics ensure electrical equivalency. Fuses should be replaced in sets of three to avoid nuiscance blowing caused by element damage.

10 E rated fuse Application E rated fuses are used to isolate the voltage transformer from the supply in the event of a primary winding failure. Properly selected fuses will also operate quickly if there is a short circuit on the secondary side of the transformer. To provide optimum protection without nuisance blowing, it is necessary to consider the following points:! The interrupting rating must be equal to or greater than the largest anticipated short circuit.! The fuse must pass the magnetising inrush to the primary windings without damage or operation. This inrush is normally considered to be 12 times the primary FLC for 0.1 second.! The fuse's voltage rating must be equal to, or greater than the system voltage. 3 phase FLC = kva x 1000 Single phase FLC = kva x 1000 vac x 1.73 vac all 2" (B) Format Transformer Application Table Transformer Primary FLC (A) from to Fuse rating (A) Time in seconds Melting Time current Characteristics RMS Amperes pg 36

15 FUSES HHD HIGH VOLTAGE FUSES GERMAN DIN STANDARD FOR AIR & GAS INSULATED SWITCHGEARS OUTDOOR SWITCHGEARS The striker pin system is connected by means of a high resistance parallel conductor. After melting the main fuse elements the striker pin will indicate the operation status of the fuse and open a load break switch or actuate a microswitch for remote indication. Design and construction SIBA HV Fuse-links have parallel connected pure silver fuse-elements. The design and method of production of the elements ensures narrow tolerances of time-currentcharacteristics. The fuse elements are wound on a ceramic support and are attached to the silver plated connection caps by means of spot-welding. The connection caps are fitted inside the silver plated copper end caps by spot welding. The copper end caps themselves are press-fitted onto the porcelain tube which is glazed inside and outside. The end caps are furthermore mechanically fixed to the porcelain tube and additionally sealed by a durable elastic sealing medium. This sealing method has been proven over many decades of positive field experience and ensures tightness against ingress of humidity. Striker pin SIBA HV Fuse-links are available with striker pins of the force: 80 N (Part No for basic-type) and 120 N (Part No. 30 for variant-type) The characteristics of both striker pins corresponds to IEC , VDE 0670 Part 4 and are of the energycategory medium. The temperature limiting function of the fuse striker pin SIBA HV Fuse-links up to and including 160 A with a striker pin of 80 N are equipped with an integrated temperature limiter as standard. The temperature limiter is fitted inside the striker pin system. The SIBA striker pin system therefore has the following functions: thermal protection of adjacent equipment, especially SF6 Insulated switchgear limitation of failure current at the overload region improved properties for the switch-fuse combinations according IEC The integrated temperature limiter avoids inadmissible high temperatures no matter for whatever reason they are generated in gas-insulated switchgear or narrow switchgear enclosures. By means of a melting activator temperatures inside the fuse link enclosure are limited to below approx. 100 C. This design especially considers continuity of current supply for the end user for as long as possible. The system reacts in such a way that short time overloads do not cause the fuse to interrupt the circuit unnecessarily. Only when inadmissible values are exceedes the fuse will open the switch via the striker pin. Higher temperatures on plastic fuse enclosures in SF6- insulated switchgear can be caused by: selection of a fuse rating too low for transformer protection fuses are loaded with fault currents below the minimum operating current deterioration of fuse links caused by transient fault currents (e.g. lightning strike) transformer faults currents (e.g. winding short-current) overloading of the fuse when loaded with currents as described in IEC 420 Test Duty 3 additional temperatures rise because of poor clip fitting Fuse-links with integrated temperature limiter are compatible with standard Fuse links. All coordination schedules can be used. Further information on our temperature limiter, design, construction, can be obtained from our website. HHD 1

34 HHD FUSES HIGH VOLTAGE FUSES GERMAN DIN STANDARD GENERAL PURPOSE FOR AIR & GAS INSULATED SWITCHGEARS OUTDOOR SWITCHGEARS According IEC and VDE 0670 Part 4, a General-Purpose-Fuse interrupts fault currents between the rated breaking current and the current which causes melting within one hour. The protection range of the SIBA- VS-Protector extends this basic demand. The minimum breaking current is about 1.5 times the rated current. In combination with the temperature released striker pin a full range protection is possible. Additional feature is the small powerloss of the VS-Protector. It is up to 40 % smaller than the standard DIN-fuse. VS-Protector for the overload and short-circuit range The dimensions of the VS-Protector are according to DIN The rated voltages 12 and 24 kv and also the available current ratings allow protection of transformers up to 630 kva. The function of the VS-Protector is comparable to a typical Back up Fuse link. The melting elements of pure silver are wound inside onto a ceramic support. A short section in the center of the fuse is designed as a Heat chamber. Inside this chamber the elements are made of silver-alloy. They generate a certain level of temperature at overloads. As a result the fuses interrupt at low fault-currents without ageing. HHD 20

62 DRIWISA HIGH VOLTAGE CURRENT-LIMITING FUSES HIGH INTERRUPTING CAPACITY INDOOR AND OUTDOOR USE Overview DRIWISA high voltage, current-limiting fuses are devices with a high interrupting capacity to protect high voltage systems against short-circuits. They are selective elements for individual operation, with very well defined time-current characteristics, ideal for protection of transformers, motors, capacitors banks, cables, lines and other high voltage equipment installed in switchgear and distribution networks. The accumulated experience for almost 30 years of DRIESCHER Y WITTJOHANN, S.A. in Mexico with the support of FRITZ DRIESCHER GmbH in Germany, has permitted the use of the electrical principles and phenomena involved during the fusing and arcing process, which are the basis to design and manufacture the fuses with a high dependability and quality level. The company has also characterized herself for the support and instructing capacity for its customers, making sure, that every technical problem the client has, is solved to a complete satisfaction. DRIWISA high voltage, current-limiting fuses are designed and manufactured according to international standards. This means, that the mechanical and dimensional features, such as the tube diameters and lenghts and the force of the tripping pin of the fuses are according to these standards. The electrical features and specifications, such as the maximum interrupting current (I 1 ), the critical interrupting current (I 2 ), and the minimum interrupting current (I 3 ) have been satisfactorily tested in internationally recognized labotarories. DRIWISA fuses are built within a service range from 2.4 to 38 kv. The DRS series is built for indoor use, while the DRS series (with "F" end-code) is used in outdoor applications, even for installation in tropical and very humid climates, for system frecuencies from 40 to 60 Hz. These fuses can be installed on special fuse-holders, non-load isolator switches and load-break disconnecting switches, thus giving an adecuate protection against the dangerous thermic and dynamic stresses during a short-circuit (refer to the corresponding sections in the catalogue). Fuses from the DRK series, having tapped end-caps, may be used for capacitor protection, being screwed directly onto the capacitor bushings.

63 DRIWISA HIGH VOLTAGE CURRENT-LIMITING FUSES HIGH INTERRUPTING CAPACITY INDOOR AND OUTDOOR USE Currrent-limiting: When protecting equipment such as transformers, motors, capacitors, cables or lines with DRIWISA fuses the currents flowing in case of a short-circuit are considerably reduced, due to the current-limiting characteristic of the fuses (refer to Figure 5 in the Fuse Manual). Fuses not sensitive to transformer or motor inrush currents: Due to their relatively slow time-current characteristic, DRIWISA fuses installed to protect transformers or motors do not exhibit premature fusion or degradation of the fuse-elements if selected according to the recommendations given in Technical Bulletins 201 and 202. Permanently fixed fuse-elements: The fuse-elements are wound on special element-holders with dented borders to ensure they are held in place permanently, thus avoiding dislocation and preventing internal short-circuits, which would provoke a degradation of the fuses characteristics. Tripping device with excellent operation characteristics: DRIWISA fuses are equipped with a tripping device (striker pin) acting through a stored-energy mechanism in a precompressed spring, which trips with a force of 120 N (120 kp), large enough to even open disconnecting switches which have not been operated during an extended period of time, thus presenting friction and resistance due to dust, dirt and corrosion (refer to Figure 3 in the Fuse Manual). High interrupting capacity: DRIWISA fuses display a high interrupting capacity which permits the interruption of very high short-circuit currents (refer to Figure 6 in the Fuse Manual). Selectivity and protection coordination: Maintaining a ratio of 1:1.6 between fuses installed in series the right coordination and protection selectivity is achieved, which makes isolation and faultdetection easy. Unnecessary power interruptions can be avoided (refer to section "Selection" in the Fuse Manual). Special sealing of fuses for outdoor service: The sealing of the fuses is accomplished by the use of special epoxic resins to avoid moisture penetration. For outdoor service fuses a special weld is used to perfectly seal against humidity. Repair with factory warranty: Due to their special design and construction DRIWISA fuses are the only ones that permit repairing in the factory, guaranteeing their original characteristics, when the porcelain tube has not been damaged. This means an interesting economic saving feature and an alternative for recicling materials, as a contribution to the environment protection. Immediate availability: Due to the large distribution network set up by DRIESCHER Y WITTJOHANN S.A. with authorized representatives located at strategic locations, DRIWISA fuses are made available on short notice, thus representing a great advantage for the immediate replacement of used elements. Technical support: DRIESCHER Y WITTJOHANN, S.A. offers her customers immediate technical support and advise when needed as for the proper selection of the right fuse for each particular case, to protect transformers, motors, capacitors, distribution lines and any other high voltage equipment, editing technical bulletins with complementary information on the fuses and on subjects related to their application, selection and maintenance.

77 DRIWISA HIGH VOLTAGE CURRENT-LIMITING FUSES HIGH INTERRUPTING CAPACITY INDOOR AND OUTDOOR USE RATED CURRENT (A) MAXIMUM RATED VOLTAGES (kv) TABLE 1 DRIWISA current-limiting fuses manufacturing program DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION: The fuse design ponders on a several compartments system or series of arcing chambers, where the voltaic arc produced by the fusion and/or evaporation of the fuse link is quenched. Fuse links, formed by one or several 99.9 % pure silver strips, are uniformly wound over a star shaped strip-holder (star-shaped body) built out of steatite (a ceramic material with great mechanical and thermal resistance), in agreement to every particular fuse design. Due to its tooth edges design, the star-shaped body guarantees the fuse link safe and firm position. Together the star-shaped body and the fuse links are put into a porcelain tube which sets up the fuse cilindric body, thus forming the series of arcing chambers (Figure 1). In every one of these arcing chambers a part of the voltaic arc produced by the fusion and/or evaporation of the fuse link when a short-circuit occurs, is started, developed and quenched. This process is described farther on. Therefore the fusion and interrupting process is carried out without the influence of external factors. Fuse links have a group of precision holes regularly spaced lengthwise, calibrated in agreement to each fuse feature, which constitutes a reduction in the conduction cross-section. When a short-circuit current is flowing, it is in these zones where the elements fusion is produced and the voltaic arc during the first part of the current wave is established. Type and number of parallel connected silver strips depend of the fuse rated current. HIGH VOLTAGE EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURERS SAN LUIS TLATILCO Nº 29 PARQUE INDUSTRIAL NAUCALPAN, C.P NAUCALPAN, EDO.

78 DRIWISA HIGH VOLTAGE CURRENT-LIMITING FUSES HIGH INTERRUPTING CAPACITY INDOOR AND OUTDOOR USE According to the above mentioned, the uniform distribution of the voltaic arc and the resulting voltage of the fuse operation is assured. The high interrupting capacity and the rated current wide range available, are mainly the result of these design features which allow the dissipation of the thermic energy generated during the fusion and/or evaporation process in a uniformly distributed shape. The fuse is filled with silica sand of specific granulometry and formulation, thus providing the proper environment for voltaic arc cooling and quenching through the absorption and dissipation of the generated heat and condensation and solidification of the evaporated metal. DW-2009 DRIWISA fuse before and after a short-circuit current interruption Figure 2 shows a fuse after it has operated, where the melted strip elements in each chamber, uniformly distributed and parts of intact strips in the transition points from one chamber to another can be seen. The voltaic arc starts in the middle of each chamber where the thicker melted elements are found. They become thinner at the same time as they get closer to the walls that separate one chamber from another, showing the interrupting characteristic in a distributed shape. Intact strip residues at the transition points indicate the availability of an additional fuse interrupting capacity. Fuse ends have silver coated electrolitic copper caps which are connected inside to the silver strips ends. DRS and DRS...F types have a mechanic indicator which operates through a stored energy system in a preloaded spring mechanism with a striker pin that emerges by one fuse end when the fuse blows out with a force of 120 N (12 Kg-force) and a travel of 35 mm. In accordance with IEC standard classifications, the striker pin features of DRIWISA fuses place it as heavy duty (strong) type. Exhaustive tests have demonstrated that it is capable of activating the DRIWISA disconnector switch quick make mechanisms even in critical conditions, such as a blocked mechanism after a long period of time without operation, overcoming friction and resistance caused by the presence of dust, dirtiness, rust on hinges or lack of lubrication. Figure 3 shows the mechanic indicator force-displacement characteristic. HIGH VOLTAGE EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURERS SAN LUIS TLATILCO Nº 29 PARQUE INDUSTRIAL NAUCALPAN, C.P NAUCALPAN, EDO. DE MEX. TEL.

79 DRIWISA HIGH VOLTAGE CURRENT-LIMITING FUSES HIGH INTERRUPTING CAPACITY INDOOR AND OUTDOOR USE FIGURE 3 DRIWISA fuse before and after a short-circuit current interruption DRIWISA fuses work satisfactorily in any mounting position. In every case epoxy-resin is used as a seal between the caps and the porcelain tube, to assure great resistance and long life sealing, waterproof and resistant to most severe and extreme atmospheric conditions. For outdoor fuses, additionally a special welding between the caps and porcelain tube is used to offer an optimum sealing. At facilities with high degree of humidity, coastal, tropic or rainy zones, it is recommended to use outdoor fuses (type DRS...F) even when installed in interiors. In regard to their electrical, dimensional and mechanical characteristics (diameters, lenghts, striker pin operation force, etc) DRIWISA fuses are manufactured in accordance with international standards. For further details, consult the catalog Selection Guide (Section I) which contains the specifications and mechanical and electrical data. OPERATION: OPERATION PRINCIPLE: When a short-circuit condition occurs in an electric network, very appreciable thermic and dynamic effects are produced because of the high current values. The interruption of these currents in the shortest time possible is very important, since the damages produced by overheating of conducting parts and by dynamic stresses must be avoided or at least minimized. Current-limiting and high interrupting capacity fuses are used as protection against short-circuit currents. The importance falls on the current-limiting effect, which is the fuse capacity to interrupt a short-circuit current before it reaches its maximum peak value by limiting the value of I D to the breaking current or fusion current I S. This is considerably less than the non-limited short-circuit current (prospective current) I k " shown in Figure 4 with a dotted line and which corresponds to the short-circuit current available at the point where the fault occurs. Figure 4 shows the current and voltage behavior during a short-circuit current and the interrupting process.

When they reach the I S value, (fuse breaking current or fusion current) the fuse link melts and/or evaporates and interrupts the circuits on several points, with multiple voltaic arcs showing up, whose length increases quickly with the material melting and/or evaporating. Voltage increases rapidly from the moment of the fusion, reaching a maximum (interruption voltage) and the current is limited to the I S value. At this moment a current decreasing process begins. The limiting process is therefore the result of the insertion of the voltaic arcs resistance at several points from the fusion. When arcs turn cold by effect of the surrounding sand consequently the conductivity is reduced and therefore, the resistance to the current flow increases quickly. The current decreases gradually at the same time as the voltage. Near to the next pass through voltage zero, the voltaic arcs are extinguished and the current remains totally interrupted. The described events occur within the first half cycle of the short-circuit current, meaning, in less than 8 to 10 milliseconds. Formation of multiple voltaic arcs at the fuse length as a consecuence of DRIWISA fuses special design gives a uniform voltage distribution as result as well as of and the great amount of energy (heat) produced during this short process, thus preventing the posibility of arc reignition.

81 DRIWISA HIGH VOLTAGE CURRENT-LIMITING FUSES HIGH INTERRUPTING CAPACITY INDOOR AND OUTDOOR USE Figure 5 shows DRIWISA current-limiting fuses characteristic indicating the let-through current maximum value I D (equal to the fusion current I S ) with regard to the prospective short-circuit current rms value ( I k " ) for fuses from 6 to 500 A. FIGURE 5 Maximum let-through current I D refered to the short-circuit prospective current I k " Line A-A' represents the maximum asymmetrical peak current that would show up in the circuit for every value of the symmetrical short-circuit prospective current I k " (rms value) in case a fuse would not exist. The value of 1.8 x 2 corresponds to the maximum asymmetric value possible in the network for the first phase to interrupt, which represents the most critical condition. The lines corresponding to every fuse rated current show the maximum let-through current I D (which corresponds to the fusion current I S ) in relation to the short-circuit prospective current I k " (rms value). For example, for a short-circuit prospective current of I k " = 20 ka rms a let-through current I D = 1.8 x 2 x 20 ka = 50.9 ka peak would show in case a currentlimiting fuse would not exist. With a 32 A fuse this value is limited to only I D = I S = 4 ka peak within an operation time lower than 10 milliseconds (figure 7). It is obvious that for low currents, for which the fusion time is long (including times over one cycle) the fuse does not act as a current-limiting fuse. Fuses will show their current-limiting characteristic only from a current value where I Dpeak is the same as I S. Starting at this level of current, the fuse will operate as a current-limiting fuse (on the right side of the A-A' line in Figure 5). The point where the line corresponding to I S of every fuse meets with the A-A' straight line, defines over the abscissa (X axis) the short-circuit current value as of which the fuse operates as current-limiting. If the short-circuit current is lower, the fuse will not operate as a current-limiting one. For example, a 75A fuse will operate as a current-limiting fuse as of approximately 2000 A of short-circuit.

82 DRIWISA HIGH VOLTAGE CURRENT-LIMITING FUSES HIGH INTERRUPTING CAPACITY INDOOR AND OUTDOOR USE RATED CURRENT (I n ): The fuse rated current is the maximum current value that the fuse can conduct for indefinite time without reaching fusion and the one to generate an energy such as the fuse can satisfactorily dissipate. INTERRUPTING CAPACITY ( I 1 ) (MAXIMUM INTERRUPTING CURRENT) : The interrupting capacity (maximum interrupting current) I 1 corresponds to the maximum short-circuit current that a fuse is capable of interrupting safely lying of the neighborhood of several tenths of ka. The interrupting capacity (maximum interrupting current) of DRIWISA fuses lies above the short-circuit currents usually available in electric networks. Nevertheless it is recommended to verify the short-circuit current of the network when selecting a fuse. The corresponding Selection Guides specify the maximum interrupting current and the interrupting capacity (MVA) for each type of fuse. When the short-circuit power instead of the short-circuit current is specified, the ratio between them is deduced from the following formula: MINIMUM INTERRUPTING CURRENT ( I 3 ): P short-circuit = kv net x kashort-circuit x 3 For values above I n fusion times are very long and they decrease at the same time the current increases (Figure 6). In this range, heat dissipation capacity is lower than the amount of heat generated inside. Therefore severe thermic stresses that may damage the fuse show up. While the current increases, the fusion times are reduced, until a point is reached where the fusion occurs in a relatively short time, before thermic stresses and damages to the fuse show up. This current value is called the minimum interrupting current I3 and corresponds to the lower limit of current ranges that the fuse may satisfactorily interrupt. FIGURE 6 Characteristic time-current curves for current-limiting fuses Considering the above, time-current curves define a minimum interrupting current value ( I 3 ) for each fuse type, below which an operation during a long period of time is not recommended, since the current (overcurrent) does not have the magnitude high enough to produce fusion, but produces an excessive heating, modifying the fuse links characteristics and producing thermic damages to the fuse body. Therefore current-limiting fuses must not operate during long periods of time in the range of currents higher than the rated one ( In ) and lower to the minimum interrupting current ( I 3 ). However, in case of high currents ( higher to I 3 ), that is within the short-circuit current range, the fuse operation is quick, defined and predictible. Figure 7 shows - in a graphic way - the different fuse operation zones and the conditions and limitations of each one.

83 DRIWISA HIGH VOLTAGE CURRENT-LIMITING FUSES HIGH INTERRUPTING CAPACITY INDOOR AND OUTDOOR USE Even though the fusion process is based on known physical principles and laws, when currents higher than I n (overcurrents) show up during a time greater than the reply time corresponding to I 3 (t I3 ) or overcurrents of an intermittent type, there are difficulties in analysing and evaluating, because the behavior of the fuse will depend on their magnitude and duration, as well as on the periods between these overcurrents, during which the fuse is able to return to a normal regime or even to the cool condition. If an overcurrent lasts a relatively long time and then stops, it can start fusion or reach the amalgamating condition with a rise in temperature because of energy disipation during that period of time, changing in a significant way the fuse links characteristics. When later found subject to a new overcurrent regime or shortcircuit, the fuses will react in a different way as to the standard characteristic, producing first heatings or inexplicable interruptions and then a reaction completely out of specification. Consulting Figures 8 and 9 which show DRIWISA fuses time-current characteristic for the range of available rated currents in the manufacturing program, it can be seen that the minimum interrupting current I 3 (begining at the dotted line) for fuses with rated currents up to 63 A, is about 2.5 times higher than the fuse rated current I n. For rated currents larger than 63 A, the minimum interrupting current I 3 is about 3 times the fuse rated current I n, while for fuse rated currents of 200 A and higher it corresponds to 4 times the rated current I n. RATED CURRENT SELECTION ( I n ): To avoid fuse operation within the overload range, the fuse rated current I n is selected with an overdimensioned factor according to the equipment to protect, which for example, in case of transformers lies between 1.6 and 2 times the circuit rated current. This way the fuse will be able to hold up with the magnetization currents (inrush) and even if the transformer works within an overload regime, the fuse will not be exposed to such, due to the transformer higher thermic capacity. Appling this factor it will be possible to coordinate protection with other devices such as overcurrent relays, phase fault relays and protection elements on the low voltage side, for example, fuses, thermomagnetic switches and other protections. Any current higher than I 3, will be interrupted in a time no longer than 10 to 100 sec., according to the corresponding curve in Figures 8 and 9. For further information regarding transformer protection, refer to Technical Bulletin 201. In regard to motor protection similar criteria are followed as described in Technical Bulletin 202, while capacitor protection is explained in Bulletin 203. For overhead lines or underground cables it is reccomended to consult Bulletin 204. TIME-CURRENT CHARACTERISTIC CURVES: FIGURE 7 Current-limiting fuses operation zones Graphics in Figures 8 and 9 correspond to DRIWISA fuses time-current performance and represent the response curves under cool condition, without previous load (preloading), at surrounding temperature of 20 C, with a tolerance margin of + 20%, for operating times larger than 0.01 sec. Graphics in Figure 10 correspond to the I 2 t characteristic (Joule integral) applicable for operating times lower than 0.1 sec.

84 DRIWISA HIGH VOLTAGE CURRENT-LIMITING FUSES HIGH INTERRUPTING CAPACITY INDOOR AND OUTDOOR USE The tight tolerance in the fuse links lineal resistance and a strict quality assurance during the manufacturing process guarantee the characteristic curves repeatibility. Applying the overdimensioning factors and following the selection criteria in agreement with the different applications, there is little probability of overloading of the fuse due to values lying above the rated current I n to occur. However, in accordance with the knowledge of the net, if the risk probability is high, the protection against overloads with currents larger than I n but smaller than I 3 during longer periods of time, should be provided by other means, such as overcurrent relays connected to disconnection devices like switches or load-break disconnectors. For further details consult Technical Bulletin 302. The oscillogram in Figure 11 shows the current characteristic performance and the voltage during a short-circuit interruption when a DRIWISA fuse type DRS07/100-A2 with 12 kv rated voltage and 100 A rated current subjected to a short-circuit prospective current of I k " = 63 ka rms is used. The current-limiting effect can be deduced when observing that the maximum let-through current I D reaches a value of 15 ka peak corresponding to the fuse fusion current I S, while the current that would have flown in the test circuit, replacing the fuse by a very low resistance conductor, would have reached a value of ka peak of the maximum asymmetrical peak current ( 1.8 x 2 x 63 A = ka peak ).

Therefore, in the example shown in Figure 11 the result is: V e = 0.87 x V o = 0.87 x 12 kv = 10.5 kv HIGH VOLTAGE EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURERS SAN LUIS TLATILCO Nº 29 PARQUE INDUSTRIAL NAUCALPAN, C.P NAUCALPAN, EDO.

85 DRIWISA HIGH VOLTAGE CURRENT-LIMITING FUSES HIGH INTERRUPTING CAPACITY INDOOR AND OUTDOOR USE OPERATION VOLTAGE ( V n ): The interrupting voltage or maneuver voltage generated during the arc extintion process, by inserting its high resistance and interrupting currents with a high grade of inductance, is of special interest. Transient voltage during interruption must not exceed the insulation levels, usually coordinated in the network, since it would provoke trouble mainly at the insulation of other components of the system, among others, at arresters placed on the line side. For this reason it is important to use fuses with a rated voltage in agreement to the network voltage. When using a fuse with less rated voltage in regard to the network voltage, problems to manage the voltage gradients will present, while using one with greater rated voltage and consequently greater interruption voltage would cause a higher voltage gradient and consequently would create problems with the insulation of other equipments in the system. In multiple tests accomplished on DRIWISA fuses, the highest arc interruption voltage value found was of V U = 1.95 x 2 x V O = 2.76 x V O. This value is considerably lower than those admitted by the standards (Table 2). Consequently, using fuses with rated voltages corresponding to network voltages, there is no danger of provoking damages to the insulation of equipments connected to the load side, such as transformers, switches, substations, motors, etc. and avoiding the arresters operation. Table 2 lists the maximum arc interruption voltages admissible for high voltage fuses in accordance with international standards. FUSE RATED SYSTEM RATED MAXIMUM MANEUVER VOLTAGE VOLTAGE (MEXICO) VOLTAGE ❶ kv rms kv rms kv peak ❶ Also defined as maximum interruption voltage TABLE 2 Maximum interruption voltage levels corresponding to the fuses rated voltage DRIWISA fuses can be installed in three-phase networks whose service voltage does not exceed the fuse rated voltage. In one-phase networks the service voltage must not be larger as 87% of the fuse rated voltage. In other cases, fuse voltage selection must be such that the maximum interruption voltage (maneuver voltage) does not exceed the maximum voltages established for the network (see Table 2). APPLICATION WITH LOAD-BREAK DISCONNECTOR SWITCHES: Using current-limiting fuses in combination with DRIWISA load-break disconnector switches, three-phase group operated with automatic and auxilliary trip type LDTP, an economical and reliable connection and disconnection equipment is obtained. In this case, minimum interrupting current values I 3 may be considered lower ( from 1.8 to 2 times the fuse rated current I n ). This is because of the premature reply of the fuse striker pin, which in case of being used within load-break switches, provokes the tripping of the auxilliary mechanism and the simultaneous opening of the three phases. HIGH VOLTAGE EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURERS SAN LUIS TLATILCO Nº 29 PARQUE INDUSTRIAL NAUCALPAN, C.P NAUCALPAN, EDO. DE MEX. TEL. (5255) , (5255) FAX (5255) EDITION 2003 H-17

86 DRIWISA HIGH VOLTAGE CURRENT-LIMITING FUSES HIGH INTERRUPTING CAPACITY INDOOR AND OUTDOOR USE This way, when the first fuse acts, the disconnector switch operates opening the three poles, interrupting the current of the remaining phases that otherwise would not have been interrupted but until the respectives fuses had acted maybe after several minutes or even hours, subjecting them to thermic stresses and eventually producing damages to the protected equipment, also preventing a two-phase operation. During the interruption of the remaining phases, the disconnector switch is not subject to large stresses because it just has to interrupt the rated load current of the net voltage. In case that some of the other fuses would have started its fusion process, the disconnector switch will only have to deal with the small arcing currents, thus remaining the fault disconnected and isolated. In accordance with international standards, for the extreme condition of operating an unfused load-break switch an inductive power factor = 0.7 (cos φ = 0.7) is specified. However, under short-circuit conditions at the transformer secundary terminals for instance, the value of cos f can be considerably lower, around 0.1. Nevertheless when using a combination of fuses with a DRIWISA load-break switch disconnector, this last will just have to disconnect a much lower current value due to the fuse current-limiting characteristic and with a power factor within its rated range, thanks to the high arc resistance of the fuse. The utilization of fuses with striker pin in combination with load-break disconnector switches is recommended for its excellent features and behavior in case of short-circuits at transformer secundary terminals. This is the reason why many electric utilities around the world use and specify DRIWISA fuses with striker pin to operate within three-pole load-break disconnector switches. ADVANTAGES: DRIWISA high interrupting capacity fuses guarantee a safe operation even for networks with a high short-circuit power. Their current-limiting characteristic guarantees the reduction to a minimum of damages to the network and other equipments, that could originate because of dangerous short-circuit currents dynamic and thermic effects. Because of their relatively slow time-current characteristic, DRIWISA fuses used for transformer or motor protection do not show untimely fusion or fuse link degradation if they are selected accordingt to the corresponding recommendations. Fuses are sealed with epoxy resin to achieve great airtightness against humidity. For outdoor use fuses, a special welding between covers and caps is used in order to offer a perfect protection against humidity. Costs savings when the same fuses can be used in networks that have increased their short-circuit power. DRIWISA fuses are recyclable and can be repaired with the original manufacturer guarantee by DRIESCHER Y WITTJOHANN, S.A. DRIWISA fuses are manufactured in a wide range of operation currents and voltages to satisfy any necessity. DRIWISA fuses are standardized in dimensions which makes the selection and replacement easy. USE AND HANDLING PRECAUTIONS: The following precautions must be taken into consideration when handling and using fuses: - Water or humidity must not penetrate into the fuse, since the high temperatures that are reached when fusion takes place, will provoke the abrupt generation of steam which causes the possibility of an explosion. - Handling fuses with precaution, avoid breakage of the porcelain and the caps to get dented. If this happens, DO NOT USE THE FUSE, AS SERIOUS RISK OF DAMAGES, HAZARDS OR INJURIES MAY OCCUR. - Fuse copper caps are silver-plated to give them excellent conductivity and assure a good electric contact. DO NOT USE SANDPAPER OR FIBER TO CLEAN THE CAPS IF THEY ARE DIRTY OR IF THEY HAVE TURNED BLACK, since this does not affect their electric conductivity features. Use a soft cloth lightly wet with silver cleaning solution not containing any abrasive or agressive materials. - Do not place metallic or metallized labels on the fuse body, since this may provoke an external flashover, as the dielectric distance along the air between the caps is reduced. - Fuse repair or rehabilitation must be done by skilled and responsible personnel; they must know about the operation principles and electrical phenomena, and must have the technical ability, skills, equipment and technology to perform these activities. DRIWISA fuses can be repaired renewing their original guarantee only by DRIESCHER Y WITTJOHANN, S.A. or they can be exchanged through Authorized Distributors or Service Centers. - When buying or repairing fuses, consider the equipment, installations and personnel value they are protecting and remember that "THE CHEAPEST MAY BE THE MOST EXPENSIVE". Entrust your installations and personal safety to DRIWISA fuses. - Even when just one fuse had operated after a short-circuit condition in a three-phase system, it is necessary and very advisable to replace the set of three fuses since the unblown fuses may have inside damage if the fusion process (pre-arcing) had begun, this will cause later problems such as inexplicable temperature rise or undesirable interruption. This recommendation is also contained in international standards. HIGH VOLTAGE EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURERS SAN LUIS TLATILCO Nº 29 PARQUE INDUSTRIAL NAUCALPAN, C.P NAUCALPAN, EDO. DE MEX. TEL.

87 DRIWISA HIGH VOLTAGE CURRENT-LIMITING FUSES HIGH INTERRUPTING CAPACITY INDOOR AND OUTDOOR USE TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE: During transport of DRIWISA fuses avoid strikes that can break or crack the porcelain fuse body or dent the caps. In case of indoor service fuses, do not allow them to get wet or to stay in humid enviroments to avoid the penetration of moist. When receiving new fuses, inspect them before storage, informing the Authorized Distributor or the factory of any problem. Fuse storage must be done in a closed, cool and dry place. Do not store them in places where there are vibrations, moist or pollution. Keep the fuses inside their original package on a shelf in order to be safe against falling and do not stack more than 5 boxes. MAINTENANCE: DRIWISA high voltage and high interrupting capacity fuses do not require any maintenance. However it is recommended that after the fuse operation in a three-phase system, to replace the set of three, even when only one fuse has blown, since the others could have been subjected to thermic stresses that may caused them damages and then cause later problems such as inexplicable temperature rise or unexpected interruptions without any suitable cause. In cases of high or prolonged overloading in the circuit protected by fuses, it is recommended these being verified as to its features in factory or with any Authorized Distributor or Service Center besides to have been subjected to overcurrent, they may have suffered irreversible thermic damages that modify and demote its original characteristics. It is advisable in all cases to be equipped with a set of at least 3 fuses as spare for emergency cases. These fuses must be of the same characteristics to those installed. Keep them following the instructions given in the section "transportation and storage". Fuse copper caps are silver-plated to give them excellent conductivity and assure a good electric contact. Do not use sandpaper or fiber to clean the caps if they are dirty or if they have turned black, since this does not affect their electric conductivity features. Use a soft cloth lightly wet with silver cleaning solution not containing any abrasive or agressive materials. Do not place metallic or metallized labels on the fuse body, since this may provoke an external flashover, as the dielectric distance along the air between the caps is reduced. Fuse repair or rehabilitation must be done by skilled and responsible personnel; they must know about the operation principles and electrical phenomenon, and must have the technical ability, skills, equipment and technology to perform these activities. DRIWISA fuses can be repaired renewing their original guarantee only by DRIESCHER Y WITTJOHANN, S.A. or they can be exchange through Authorized Distributors or Service Centers. INSTALLATION AND/OR REPLACEMENT: It is recommended to follow the following instructions when placing or replacing fuses: A) ACCOMPLISH THE SAFETY PREPARATIONS: 1) Use special pliers for the handling of high voltage fuses ( brand DRIWISA type DW-018) 2) Use insulating gloves properly guaranteed for use in high voltage. 3) Use a headpiece made of insulating material. 4) Have ready cable, hook stick and equipment to connect to ground. 5) Have ready a sand bed where fuses can be placed. 6) In front of the equipment which contains the fuses, place an insulating platform for high voltage or a wood platform with an insulating rug and stay above it all the time the operation lasts, even more if the environment is humid. 7) If working in branch circuits or remote substations, place placards in the main substation or switch where it let knows that someone is working there "DO NOT CONNECT" " MEN WORKING...". B) THINK FIRST AND THEN ACT, remember that when working with high voltage, the FIRST MISTAKE may be THE LAST ONE. 8) Disconnect the high voltage supply: 8.1) Be sure that the main load-break disconnector or main switch is open. If not, open it. 8.2) Open the non load-break isolator. 8.3) Connect the ground switch ( in case of having this kind of equipment). 9) Open the door cabinet; stay strategically where the door does not hit you, nor get projections from inside.

88 DRIWISA HIGH VOLTAGE CURRENT-LIMITING FUSES HIGH INTERRUPTING CAPACITY INDOOR AND OUTDOOR USE PRECAUTION: FUSES MAY REACH HIGH TEMPERATURES SO THAT WHEN THE CABINET DOOR IS OPENED, THEY CAN RECEIVE A THERMAL IMPACT, THAT MAY CRASH AND/OR MAKE EXPLODE THE PORCELAIN TUBE. THEREFORE LET THE FRESH AIR ENTER SLOWLY. 10) Connect the ground cable; use the correct size of cable and a hook stick. Connect it first to the substation or switchgear ground bus or grounding structures and then to the phases (in case of not having a ground switch integrated to the equipment). 11) Find out and determine the cause that made the fuse blow, it can be a short-circuit or an overload. Eliminate the trouble, remove the remains and make a general cleaning. 12) Verify the condition of equipment and installations. 13) Inspect the new fuses and make sure they do not show maltreatment, cracks or fissures, check that the porcelain tube is not broken, grooved or scratched, nor the caps are dented or plunged. If some things mentioned before would happen, do not use them since their use is very risky. Verify that the fuse striker pin is brought back and is in its place. ) Fuse copper caps are silver-plated to give them excellent conductivity and assure a good electric contact. DO NOT USE SANDPAPER OR FIBER TO CLEAN THE CAPS IF THEY ARE DIRTY OR IF THEY HAVE TURNED BLACK, since this does not affect their electric conductivity features. Use a soft cloth lightly wet with silver cleaning solution not containing any abrasive or agressive materials. Do not place metallic or metallized labels on the fuse body, since this may provoke an external flashover, as the dielectric distance along the air between the caps is reduced. 15) Remove the old fuses with pliers DW-018 and replace them for DRIWISA fuses of the same characteristics: Type, rated voltage and rated current. Never use fuses of different brands in the same circuit or different type, rated voltage or current even if they're of the same brand, since their characteristics are not the same. In three-phase systems it is recommended to replace the set of three fuses even when only one had blown since the others may be damaged and cause problems later. PRECAUTION: FUSES MAY STAY HOT, PLACE THEM ON THE SAND BED, LETTING ENOUGH TIME PASS BEFORE TOUCHING THEM WITH BARE HANDS. 16) If the fuses are installed in load-break disconnectors, verify the operation of the auxiliary trip mechanism. 17) Place the new fuses carefully, making sure the clips assemblies make the proper contact with the fuse caps. When inserting the fuses in the clip assemblies, make pressure on the ends and not on the middle of the fuse. Do not hit the fuse. 18) Remove all the tools that have been used and verify that are complete and it has not stayed behind anything inside the cabinet. 19) Disconnect the grounding switch or the ground connections, wherever it is the case. 20) Close the cabinet door, connect the non-load isolator switch and connect the high voltage supply. 21) Replace damaged fuses for new fuses, of the same rated voltage and current. In some cases, when the fuse operation is because of overloads, verify the load calculations and if necessary ask for three new fuses at the adecuate rated current according to the new calculation. DRIWISA fuses can be repaired including their original guarantee only by DRIESCHER Y WITTJOHANN, S.A. or they can be exchanged through Authorized Distributors or Service Centers. Fuse repair or rehabilitation must be done by skilled and responsible personnel; they must know about the operation principles and electric phenomena, and must have the technical ability, skills, equipment and technology to perform these activities. Do not expose installations, equipments and own security. SELECTION: When selecting current-limiting fuses always consider the following factors: - Network rated voltage - Interrupting capacity - Installation altitude - Fuse rated current, according to application - Coordination with other protections - Type of service (indoor or outdoor) - Dimensions - Availability of spare, service and technical assistance - Security and reliability : always use DRIWISA fuses HIGH VOLTAGE EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURERS SAN LUIS TLATILCO Nº 29 PARQUE INDUSTRIAL NAUCALPAN, C.P NAUCALPAN, EDO.

89 DRIWISA HIGH VOLTAGE CURRENT-LIMITING FUSES HIGH INTERRUPTING CAPACITY INDOOR AND OUTDOOR USE Fuse selection must be done in agreement to the equipment to protect, since the selection criteria are different for each application. For further information consult additionally the following information which is included in section J: TECHNICAL BULLETIN No. C O N T E N T S 201 Recommendations for protection with current-limiting fuses: TRANSFORMERS. 202 Recommendations for protection with current-limiting fuses: MOTORS. 203 Recommendations for protection with current-limiting fuses: CAPACITORS. 204 Recommendations for protection with current-limiting fuses: OVERHEAD LINES AND CABLE FEEDERS. 205 Considerations and criteria for the parallel-connection of fuses (two-per phase arrangement). 206 Equivalency between DRIWISA fuses and american fuses type "R" and "E". 302 Shunt-trip coil for electrical remote control. 304 Selection of non-load break isolator switches and load-break disconnector switches with fuse-holders. Selectivity and coordination of protections is reached by keeping a rate of 1 : 1.6 between fuse rated currents, being the smallest the one connected closest to the load and the biggest the one connected from the supply side, assuring this way that the smallest blow first, interrupting and isolating the fault. In case of transformer protection, to establish selectivity and coordination with protections on the low voltage side it is necessary to refer to the high voltage fuses time-current characteristic curves and to the curves of the devices and/or fuses of the low voltage side (for further information refer to Technical Bulletin 201). Sometimes, for big transformer protection, it is necessary to appeal to a two-per-phase fuse arrangement to reach the required rated current value. For these cases it is recommended to consult Technical Bulletin 205 before deciding on this arrangement. For motor protection it is required to know the starting time, the maximum starting current, and the motor startings frecuency to select the correct fuse. It is recommended to consult Technical Bulletin 202. Capacitor and capacitor-bank protection invest special importance, because of the increasing use they have to keep the power factor within the acceptable limits and the relative rank of difficulty for its adequate protection, since connection currents reach, in many cases, levels very close to those of short-circuit. For further information consult Technical Bulletin 203. For fuse selection for overhead lines and cable feeders, the selection criteria are described in Technical Bulletin 204, considering that it must be done in function of the transversal section and the admissible current in the conductor. In the fuse selection for networks and circuits with high probabilities of long duration or high overloadings which require therefore of fuses with high currents rates, it is reminded that these must be used for protection against short-circuits and not for protection against overloading. Requeriments for specific arrangements in networks have to be calculated in detail by the customer to control and/or verify the continuous load regime over the fuses, the interruption current, and the fuse interrupting capacity. All data corresponding to voltage, current, interrupting capacity given in this Manual and/or Selection Guides of Catalogs, Technical Bulletins, etc., are refered to installation heights up to 1000 m over sea level and an enviroment temperature up to 40 C. In any way, once selected the correct fuse for its application, consider the installation altitude correction factors included in Table 3, in the fuse rated current as in the interrupting capacity and rated voltage reduction. If it is calculated with the correction by altitude in the rated current, do not use the temperature rising correction and viceversa. In some cases, a temperature correction factor should be additionally considered, in those cases in which the fuses are installed inside of cabinets or switchboards with little ventilation and/or high temperatures, in accordance with Table 4. When there exist several sizes of fuses for a specific rate of current, it is advisable to consider the future installation growth (greater rated current) or the increase of short-circuit capacity, this means to verify if for the selected fuse size exist larger rated currents or interrupting capacities, in such a way that when selecting them it is chosen a size that allows to increase the capacity, by means of just changing fuses by others of greater current or interrupting capacity when this growth requires it. Bulletin 206 establishes equivalency criteria between american fuses curves type "R" y "E" and DRIWISA fuses curves. Fuses must have a rated voltage equal or greater to the system highest voltage between phases, when they are used in three-phase systems with neutral firmly grounded or with neutral connected through an impedance or resistance. When using fuses in systems with isolated neutral (not grounded), the rated voltage should be at least 1.15 times the system highest voltage between phases. When fuses are used in one-phase systems, its rated voltage should be at least 1.15 times greater than the voltage between phase and ground.

They have standardised dimensions and are fully interchangeable with other fuses of the same type and rating. Blown fuse indication is standard on all types. The design of the striker travel and force meets standard requirements for mechanical actuation. 'R' Rating Defined Features! Integral indicating pin for visual or mechanical operation! 2.5kV and 5.5kV fuses can be hermetically sealed and supplied without indicator for use in hazardous location application.! fully plated metal parts for low contact resistance! standard 'R' ratings ensure interchangeability. Installation notes The 'R' rating for a fuse is established by dividing the second melt current of the fuse by 100. In this way, fuses having the same 'R' rating will melt at the same current level at 20s - thus ensuring identical motor starting capability and coordination with the overload relays. When replacing motor starting fuses, always match the 'R' rating - not the amp rating - to maintain identical co-ordination and motor starting capability. Fusetek MR fuses can replace any manufacturers' motor fuse having the same dimensions. Ensure that fuse clips still have good tension and clean all contact surfaces before re-installing fuses. The striker pin should be pointing up when installing fuses. Fuses should be replaced in sets of three to avoid nuisance blowing caused by element damage. Motor Circuits There are motor/fuse selection charts in each section. To use these fuse charts it is necessary to know the starting current and run-up time of the motor.

Hermetically sealed fuses for use in hazardous environments are also offered. Contact the factory or your local Littelfuse representative for additional fuse ratings or custom mounting configurations. 24 Hour Emergency Service is available. Call GENERAL INFORMATION The terms Medium Voltage and high voltage have been used interchangeably by many people to describe fuses operating above 600 volts. Technically speaking, medium voltage fuses are those intended for the voltage range from 2,400 to 38,000 VAC. High voltage fuses are for circuits carrying voltages greater than 38,000 VAC. E Rated fuses are considered to be general purpose fuses and can be used to protect against low and high values of fault current. R rated fuses are designed for back-up protection. They must be used in series with other devices, such as motor overload relays, in order to achieve both overload and short circuit protection. Medium voltage fuses are not intended to provide overload protection in the same sense as fuses rated 600 volts or less. Medium voltage fuse current ratings do not have the same meanings as the ampere ratings of low voltage fuses. All medium voltage fuses are limited in their ability to interrupt low value overcurrents, especially those between 100% and 200% of the fuse s continuous current rating. They are designed to carry their rated current without exceeding the temperature rise permitted by NEMA and ANSI standards. Additional application data can be found in the Fuse Application section of the POWR-GARD Products catalog (PF101).

120 R Rated Medium Voltage Fuses Current Limiting FEATURES R rated fuses provide required short-circuit protection for medium voltage motors, motor controllers and associated circuitry. These components have limited ability to absorb the energy of large short circuit currents. Medium voltage motor controllers contain overload relays which provide both overload protection and locked rotor protection to the motor. The controllers are also intended to interrupt low value short circuits within the capability of the motor controller. This protects the medium voltage fuse from sustained overcurrents which are less than their minimum interrupting rating. NEMA Standards for R rated medium voltage power fuses require that they operate within seconds when subjected to an rms current 100 times the R rating. For example, a fuse with a 2R rating will open within 15 to 35 seconds on an applied current of 2 x 100 = 200 amperes.

124 E Rated Medium Voltage Fuses Current Limiting E Rated fuses have time current characteristics designed to provide current limiting protection for power transformers, potential transformers, power centers, feeder centers, and unit sub stations. When properly applied, they can protect against high and low value fault currents. NEMA Standards for E rated medium voltage fuses require that fuses rated 100E or less open within 300 seconds (5 minutes) when subjected to an RMS value of % of the fuse s continuous current rating; and fuses with an E rating larger than 100E must open within 600 seconds (10 minutes) when subjected to an rms current of % of the fuse s continuous current rating. These values establish one point on the time-current curve. Application Note: Since these fuses are used for the protection of general purpose circuits which may contain transformers, motors, and other equipment producing inrush and/or overload currents, fuses should generally be rated at 0% of the normal full load current, and circuits should be analyzed to ensure that system load currents will not exceed the current rating of the fuse.
