Protection
Products listed in table “UL508 SCCR FUSES TABLE “ are suitable for use on a circuit capable of delivering not more than 100,000
A rms Symmetrical Amperes, 600 Volts maximum when protected by fuses.
Use fuses only
According to UL508, test at 100.000A were carried out with class J fuses rated xxxA (refer to table “SCCR fuse protection table” to
details of the current size fuses for the fuse).
For products complying with the UL508 standard, the use of fuses in the “UL508 SCCR FUSES TABLE” table does not guarantee the
operation of the device following a short circuit.
To guarantee the functioning of the device after the short circuit, it is recommend the use of extra rapid fuses as in table “EXTRARAPID
FUSES”.
For products GTF up to 120A, the use of fuses in the “SCCR CO-ORDINATION FUSES TABLE” guarantee the operation of the
device following a short circuit.
ATTENTION: The opening of the branch-circuit protective device may be an indication that a fault has been interrupted. To reduce the
risk of fire or electric shock, current-carrying parts and other components of the device should be examined and replaced if damaged.
If burnout of the device occurs, the complete device must be replaced or equivalent.
