Ratings for S&C Power Fuses
with Uni-Rupter

Complete ratings and capabilities of S&C Power Fuses
with Uni-Rupter as applied in S&C Source-Transfer PMH
Pad-Mounted Gear are shown in the table below. Uni-
Rupter is also capable of carrying and interrupting load
currents up to and including the emergency peak-load
capabilities of the associated SML Power Fuses, or up to
400 amperes at 14.4 kv and 200 amperes at 25 kv when
used with Fault Fiter Electronic Power Fuses. In addition
to the load-dropping capabilities shown, Uni-Rupter is

capable of interrupting transformer magnetizing currents
associated with the applicable loads, as well as line-charg-
ing and cable-charging currents typical for distribution
systems of these voltage ratings. The duty-cycle fault-clos-
ing capabilities shown for S&C Power Fuses with Uni-
Rupter represent the fault-closing capabilities of the fuse
with Uni-Rupter when the fuse is closed with a purposeful
thrust without hesitation. Following the specified number
of such closings (one or two), Uni-Rupter will remain
operable and able to carry and interrupt rated current.
