FAQs of 11kV Horn Gap Fuse Polymeric Type:
Q: How is the 11kV Horn Gap Fuse Polymeric Type installed in outdoor distribution systems?
A: The fuse unit is pole-mounted using the provided galvanized iron channel, fasteners, and fittings, allowing for swift and secure installation on overhead lines. Its modular design facilitates easy assembly in various configurations, suitable for single or three-phase setups.
Q: What materials are used in this fuse and why are they beneficial?
A: High-grade polymer, galvanized iron, and copper are utilized for their durability, conductivity, and corrosion resistance. Polymeric insulators provide UV stability, while tinned copper arcing horns and silver-plated copper wire fuse element enhance efficient current interruption and longevity.
Q: When should this fuse be considered for network protection?
A: It is recommended for outdoor electrical distribution systems requiring reliable overcurrent and short-circuit protection, especially in environments subject to temperature extremes and UV exposure, operating within an ambient range of -20C to +55C.
Q: Where is the 11kV Horn Gap Fuse Polymeric Type typically utilized?
A: This fuse is commonly installed on outdoor overhead lines, in distribution networks for industrial, commercial, and utility sectors. Its suited for both new networks and upgrades across India and applicable international standards.
Q: What is the process of current interruption in this fuse?
A: Upon fault detection, the silver-plated copper wire fuse element melts, breaking the circuit. The tinned copper arcing horns safely redirect and extinguish the arc, minimizing equipment damage and enhancing safety during operation.
Q: How does the bimetallic terminal connector add value to installations?
A: Bimetallic connectors allow seamless and reliable connections to both aluminum and copper conductors, providing flexibility in various wiring scenarios and simplifying on-site installation and maintenance.
Q: What are the key benefits of choosing this fuse for overhead line protection?
A: Key advantages include high breaking capacity (6.3kA RMS symmetrical), longevity through UV and corrosion resistance, compliance with multiple international standards, and ease of integration with supplied accessories. Its design ensures both operational reliability and extended equipment lifespan.
