Introduction

The AGA-15 fuse is an Advanced Gas Arrester (AGA) fuses designed for use in high voltage applications. The AGA-15 is a type 1 surge protective device designed to protect switchgear, distribution equipment, and similar medium-voltage systems from lightning-induced and other over-voltage transients. It provides protection for both ac and dc systems. The AGA-15 is designed to trip within 2 microseconds of over-voltage, providing protection in virtually all environments.

Application Field

The AGA-15 fuse is suitable for transient protection of medium voltage systems, such as distribution systems, capacitors, transmission lines, lighting systems, and ground wires. The AGA-15 fuse can also be used for motor protection, lightning arrester applications, and protection from other overvoltage transients. The design of the AGA-15 fuse is optimized for medium-voltage applications, providing excellent surge protection in a variety of environments. The AGA-15 fuse is designed to meet the IEC 60044-20 standard, making it the most suitable fuse for surge protection of medium voltage equipment.

Working Principle

The AGA-15 fuse works by absorbing the energy of surges that exceed the specified voltage threshold. The voltage peaks are quickly detected and discharged through the gaseous medium within the fuse, thus providing fast and effective over-voltage protection.When a voltage spike occurs, the current flows through the gaseous medium inside the AGA-15 fuse, where it creates an arc along the arc chamber. This arc creates an impedance, slowing down the rise of voltage, allowing the fuse to trip in a very short amount of time.Once tripped, the AGA-15 fuse will reset when the voltage returns to a safe level. This allows the system to quickly recover from power outages and other disturbances.

Advantages

The AGA-15 fuse provides superior over-voltage protection in a wide variety of medium voltage applications. It is designed for reliable operation in both ac and dc environments, and its fast-acting design ensures that surge protection is provided in a timely fashion. The AGA-15 fuse is also compact and lightweight, making it easy to install and maintain.The AGA-15 fuse also has cost-saving advantages. It is designed for optimum performance, providing superior protection while using less energy and being more cost-effective than other fuses.

Conclusion

The AGA-15 fuse is the perfect solution for providing surge protection in medium voltage applications. It is designed for fast and reliable performance, and its cost-effective design offers significant savings for both commercial and industrial installations. Its small size and quick response time make it the ideal surge protective device for all medium voltage applications.
