Should I Choose a Cylindrical Cartridge Fuse or an Auto Fuse
Excessive currents can cause great damage to electrical systems. Various protection elements are available to protect against these risks. Fuses, circuit breakers are devices that protect against overcurrents, which are installed in the electrical installation. If an electrical system does not have a fuse or circuit breaker and more devices are operated in a single circuit, the cable carrying the power of that circuit overheats, a short circuit occurs and can cause a fire.Automatic fuses and cylindrical cartridge fuses are at the top of the protection elements in the fuse class. Although automatic fuses and cylindrical cartridge fuses are used to protect electrical systems against overcurrents, they have many basic differences. How to choose these products is about knowing these basic differences and the structure of the electrical system in which they will be used.
The response time of the automatic fuses in case of excessive load current is short. Thus, it can provide more precise protection in the event of excessive load current, while the cutting capacity is smaller than that of cylindrical fuses. It provides protection against overcurrents with thermal and magnetic opening sellers and can be used repeatedly when it is disabled due to overcurrents. Modularly mountable to DIN rail
In the event of a short circuit, the response time is considerably shorter than that of automatic fuses. Thus, the electrical installation and the devices connected to the installation are protected more precisely against short circuits. Their cutting capacity is high and they provide protection against overcurrents by melting the wire inside under the influence of heat. However, Cylindrical Cartridge Fuses that are disabled by exposure to excessive current need to be replaced with a new one, they cannot be used repeatedly. Cylindrical cartridge fuses The cylindrical cartridge must be used within the fuse slot.
