30E1C15.5

Specialty Fuses

The 30E1C15.5 is a specialty fuse designed specifically for applications with 15.5A AC and DC currents. This fuse is a slow-blow fuse, meaning it is designed to survive an initial surge of current without blowing immediately. This is especially useful for surge protection, such as those that can be found in motors, power strips, electrical circuits, etc.

Application Field

The 30E1C15.5 fuse can be used in a wide variety of applications. This fuse is ideal for low-voltage motors, power strips, and electrical circuits. It is also designed to provide surge protection, especially from surges that are generated by motor startup, shutting off of components, or any other event that produces a high current surge. This fuse can also be used in high-current applications, such as in lighting, heating, and cooling systems.

Working Principle

The 30E1C15.5 is a thermal-type slow blow fuse, meaning it breaks a circuit when the internal temperature of the fuse reaches a certain point. This temperature is usually predetermined by the manufacturer or by the customer. When a surge of current flows through the circuit, the extra heat generated from the current causes the fuse to heat up, which gradually causes the fuse’s internal temperature to increase. When the temperature reaches the predetermined point, the internal contacts of the fuse are taken apart, thus breaking the circuit, thus preventing any further damage to components in the circuit.

Conclusion

The 30E1C15.5 is a thermal-type slow blow fuse used in a variety of applications, including low-voltage motors, power strips, and electrical circuits. It is designed to provide surge protection against current surges generated from motor startup, shutting off of components, and other events. The fuse works by gradually increasing its internal temperature until it reaches a predetermined point, at which time the internal contacts are taken apart, thus breaking the connection and protecting the components.
