Fuses have been used in electrical circuits since at least the early part of the twentieth century. They are an effective way of preventing electrical overloading, by providing the circuit with a predetermined level of safety. In line with that, 3SB1.5 is one of the most widely used types of fuses today, and its application field and working principles are discussed in this article.

To start with, 3SB1.5 fuses are specifically designed for accompanying the high voltage and lighting installations, as well as electric motors. Their specific application includes being used in line or circuit cords, relays, motor control centers, electrical panels, dry-type transformers, lighting tracts, and many other places. The common features of all these items are that they have high-voltage and potentially high-current application points, and 3SB1.5 fuses are designed to offer protection against the risk of power surge or electrical overload.

In terms of their working principles, 3SB1.5 fuses are designed to be used in circuits or lines that frequently exceed their normal capacity; when an overload occurs, the fuse is activated, cutting off the power supply to the circuit or line. This process is referred to as ‘short-circuiting’ and is one of the most important ways in which the fuse prevents damage from occurring in these devices.

As with all fuses, the 3SB1.5 fuse has two parts; a body or ‘bar’ and a ‘plug’. When the fuse is actively in use, the connecting point between the bar and the plug (in effect, the link between the two elements) enables an electrical current to pass between them. This is the same current that flows through the other devices in the circuit, so it is important that it remains constant at all times.

In the event of a power surge or overload in the circuit, there is an increase in current, which proves too much for the fuse to handle. As such, the connection between the bar and the plug is forcibly disrupted, providing an instant shutoff for the circuit. The fuse provides physical protection against overload, whilst the circuit connection itself remains unaffected.

To be able to handle the high voltage and currents in the circuits in which they are used, 3SB1.5 fuses are made from a metal wire that is highly resistant to heat. This is highly important, as the wires that are normally used in circuits can easily be damaged by the heat generated during an overload. As such, metal wires are the preferred material for the actual fuse body, as they are extremely effective at preventing damage to circuits and wiring.

In addition, 3SB1.5 fuses also have a mounting bracket and bushings that keep the fuse in place. The bushings also serve to insulate the fuse from the surrounding environment, preventing the formation of short circuits and overheating.

Finally, 3SB1.5 fuses have a glass or plastic outer casing to protect them from physical damage and external shock. The casing also provides the fuse with a degree of environmental protection, as it prevents the fuse from being damaged by excess moisture or contamination.

In conclusion, 3SB1.5 fuses are widely used in many different kinds of high voltage and lighting installations, as well as electric motors. They are designed to offer protection against the risk of power surges or electrical overload, and their working principles involve the use of a metal wire that is highly resistant to heat, a mounting bracket and bushings, and a glass or plastic outer casing. All of which serve to protect the fuse and the circuit from potential damage.
