LPJ-2-8/10SP

The LPJ-2-8/10SP is a type 2 low-voltage, gG-fuse with a breaking capacity of 10kA. It is designed for providing reliable protection for low voltage applications, particularly in residential and commercial buildings. The fuse is type 2, meaning that it has an increased short-circuit protection time, making it suitable for protecting against power surges and peak currents.

The fuse is rated at 10A and is suitable for currents up to 10,000A. This ensures that the fuse is able to handle larger currents during short-circuit faults, while still providing adequate protection for the equipment and the wiring in the building.

The LPJ-2-8/10SP is normally used to protect low-voltage circuits in residential and commercial buildings. It is designed to provide over-current protection for the dwellings, protecting them from the potentially hazardous effects of accidental short-circuits and overloads. It also provides a level of protection against peak currents, which can result in costly damage to the wiring over time.

In order to work correctly, the LPJ-2-8/10SP needs to be installed correctly in the circuit. This involves connecting it in series between the incoming mains and the load. It should be connected to both the conductors and the ground in a manner which ensures the correct current and voltage ratings are maintained.

When the current flowing through the circuit exceeds the rated value, the fuse will open and break the circuit. This ensures that the downstream circuits are protected from the potentially hazardous effects of the overload. The fuse is designed to open quickly, which reduces the risk of damage to downstream equipment or wiring.

The LPJ-2-8/10SP fuse has a time-lag feature which allows it to protect against certain over-current faults, such as those caused by a short-circuited motor or a defective appliance. This time-lag feature also allows the fuse to remain functional even when subjected to peak current, such as those resulting from lightning strikes.

The LPJ-2-8/10SP is a dependable and cost-effective means of protecting infrastructure and electrical equipment in residential and commercial buildings. It is a robust and reliable fuse and is capable of providing adequate protection against over-currents, short-circuits and peak currents.
