Fuses

A fuse is a device used to protect electrical equipment from over-current or short circuits. Fuses have been used for many years to provide protection from fire and other hazards, and are still widely used today.

0326.250H Application Field and Working Principle

The 0326.250H is a high-performance, UL listed, 1kA IEC low- breaking capacity fuse (LBC) for use in AC or DC circuits. The 0326.250H is designed for use in power distribution systems, motor circuits, solar power systems, and other applications where over-current protection is required. It is suitable for use in any industrial or commercial electrical system where the range of over-current protection needed is up to 1000 amperes. The fuse has a voltage rating of 600v-AC, DC, and its maximum operating temperature is 125 degrees Celsius.

The fuse is designed to protect the circuit from damage caused by short circuits or over-currents. When the current reaches the trip point, the heat produced causes the internal elements of the fuse to melt, thus breaking the circuit and preventing the flow of current. Once the current is reduced or the circuit is repaired, the fuse will automatically reset and allow the current to flow again, thus protecting the circuit.

In addition to its over-current protection function, the 0326.250H also offers short-circuit protection. Short-circuit protection prevents the fuse from reaching its melting point too quickly. If the current is too high, the fuse can activate at a lower current than its rated trip point, thus preventing the circuit from breaking due to an overload.

The 0326.250H is UL listed and meets the safety requirements of NFPA 70 (National Fire Protection Association) for fuses used in power distribution. This makes the fuse suitable for use in critical applications such as electric motor systems, where the safety of people and equipment is of paramount importance.

The 0326.250H is available with a wide range of accessories, including mounting brackets, fused switches, fusible disconnects, and more. This makes it easy to customize the fuse to suit any application, ensuring a safe and reliable system.

Fuses provide an important function in any electrical system, and the 0326.250H is a reliable and dependable option when it comes to over-current and short circuit protection. With its wide range of accessories and UL listing, it is an ideal choice for applications where safety and reliability are key.
