Section 5. EntelliGuard Breaker
Table 5.2
Allowable Current Limiting Fuse Sizes for EntelliGuard Breakers
* These fuse sizes are also available as Welder Limiters.
1
Class L fuses less than 800A are not UL or CSA listed. Use Class J fuses for 600A
and below. The maximum fuse rating is the largest fuse that tests show will result
in proper performance of the breaker and fuse in combination under short-circuit
conditions. Only Ferraz-Shawmut fuses should be used for proper coordination.
2
Fuses are mounted in a separate roll-out element (fuses shipped as “XS” material).
3
Integrally fused 1600A frame breakers (EGF-16) equipped with 2500A fuses can be
furnished with rating plugs from 300 – 1600A. Breakers equipped with 2500A fuses
cannot be modified to accept lower rated fuses. EGF-16 breakers equipped with
2000A and lower fuses cannot be upgraded to 2500A fuses. The maximum trip
rating for an EGF-16 breaker is 1200A when furnished with other than 2500A fuses
(see table for min/max fuse rating for each rating plug value). 2500A fuses preclude
the use of shutters in the breaker cubicle.
