3402.0005.22 Application Field and Working Principle

A fuse (sometimes referred to as a "fuse element") is an electrical device used to protect circuits from excessive current. It is a type of electrical protection device. It has a simple structure that includes a metal strip or wire, feature two steel Caps, a current-carrying element and termination caps. A fuse is designed to melt and open the circuit if the current exceeds the rated amperage of the fuse, thus protecting the circuit.

The 3402.0005.22 is a fuse used for both indoor and outdoor applications. This fuse is designed to work in temperatures range from -55oC to 85oC. It has a rated current of 100A and a breaking capacity of 20kA. This fuse is suitable for higher current applications such as small motor and electrical equipment.

The primary function of a fuse is to protect equipment against short circuits and overloads. The fuse works by melting and opening the circuit when the current through the circuit exceeds the rated amperage of the fuse. This prevents damage to the circuit and prevents fire and electric shock hazards.

A fuse provides several advantages. It is faster and more reliable than a circuit breaker as it responds faster to overcurrents. It gives visual indication when it trips. It allows quick repair and no additional wiring or testing is required to reset the fuse. It is also cheaper, easier to install, and require less maintenance than a circuit breaker.

The working principle of a fuse is simple. When the current passes through the coil, it generates heat that when exceed the saturation point of the fuse, the fuse element melts and open the circuit.

The 3402.0005.22 is a reliable fuse. It is suitable for protecting electrical circuits and equipment from overcurrent conditions. It is fast-acting and has a current rating of 100A. Its rated breaking capacity of 20kA ensures it can handle high levels of current without damage. It is suitable for indoor and outdoor applications and works in a temperature range of -55oC to 85oC.

To sum up, the 3402.0005.22 is a reliable and safe fuse. It is ideal for protecting electrical circuits and equipment from overcurrents. It is fast-acting, has a current rating of 100A, and a breaking capacity of 20kA. It is suitable for indoor and outdoor applications, and works in a temperature range of -55oC to 85oC.
