The FP100 is a GMT dual circuit fuse panel that provides DC power connection, input fusing,
and circuit protection for the IPB (see
). The fuse panel is not applicable in AC
power configurations.
Figure 2.9 - Fuse Panel Front View
The fuse panel contains two separate circuits: A and B. In each circuit, current flows from the
input through the fuse bus. When you install a fuse in a fuse holder, it completes the circuit to
the output connector. When a fuse fails, it sends a fail signal to the Fuse Fail Alarm circuit.
The back of the fuse panel provides input and output terminal connections, chassis ground
connections, and wire wrap pins for external alarm hookups (see
Figure 2.10 - Fuse Panel Rear View
contains technical specifications for the fuse panel.
