8AG-361.5 Electrical, Specialty Fuses

Electrical fuses are an important component in any electrical system. Fuses protect circuits from overcurrent, shorts, and other unwanted surprises. They also help achieve the required standard of safety in electrical and electronic circuits. Specialty fuses, like the 8AG-361.5, are used in a variety of applications to provide the specific performance qualities needed.

Application Field

The 8AG-361.5 is a specialty, Class I, fuse device designed for use in applications and systems requiring fast-acting, high-interrupting-rating fuses. The 8AG-361.5 is suitable for use in protecting electrical conductors in a variety of standard fused distribution systems. The device is designed primarily to provide reliable short-circuit protection in installations that require an extremely fast-acting fuse.

In general, the 8AG-361.5 is applicable for current-limiting, short-circuit protection in high-voltage switchgear, motor control centers, circuit controllers, paralleling switchgear, feeder controllable switches, and panel board circuits. The device is also suitable for feeder interrupters, transformer and motor leads, capacitors, and other power delivery systems.

Working Principle

The 8AG-361.5 is a glass-body, specialty fuse device that utilizes the principle of electrolytic construction. The thermal material used in this device is an organic material that reacts to excessive current, producing intense heat that causes the inert media inside the fuse to break down into a liquid-like substance.

When short-circuit interrupting conditions are encountered, the intense heat generated causes the molten material to vaporize, resulting in an instantaneous voltage drop. This rapid decrease in voltage initiates a self-limiting interrupting process that quickly interrupts the circuit in a faulted condition.

The fuse uses a combination of specialized components to withstand multiple short-circuit interrupting operations. The main components include the fuse links, housed in an electrolytic material, and the fuse carriers. A fuse link is the main component in the fuse and performs the task of transferring power from the electrical system to the internal terminals of the device. The fuse carrier is used to dissipate the thermal energy generated by the fuse during the course of the electrical operation.

Why Choose the 8AG-361.5?

The 8AG-361.5 is a great choice for protection in medium- and high-voltage electrical systems. It offers several advantages, including its fast-acting characteristics, its high interrupting rating, and its thermal stability.
