3.1.2 Fuses
Branch circuit protection:
In order to protect the installation against electrical and fire hazard, all branch circuits in an installation, switch gear, machines etc., must be short-circuited
and overcurrent protected according to national/international regulations.
Short circuit protection:
Danfoss recommends using the fuses mentioned in the following tables to protect service personnel or other equipment in case of an internal failure in
the unit or short-circuit on DC-link. The frequency converter provides full short circuit protection in case of a short-circuit on the motor or brake output.
a circuit capable of supplying a maximum of 100,000 A
rms
(symmetrical), 480 V maximum.
Overcurrent protection:
Provide overload protection to avoid overheating of the cables in the installation. Overcurrent protection must always be carried out according to national
regulations. Fuses must be designed for protection in a circuit capable of supplying a maximum of 100,000 A
rms
(symmetrical), 480 V maximum.
Non UL compliance:
If UL/cUL is not to be complied with, Danfoss recommends using the fuses mentioned in the below table, which will ensure compliance with EN50178/
IEC61800-5-1:
In case of malfunction, not following the fuse recommendation may result in damage to the frequency converter.
