AI Customer ServiceMost capacitor fuses have a maximum power frequency fault current that they can interrupt. These currents may be different for inductive and capacitively limited faults. For ungrounded or multi-series group banks, the faults are capacitive limited.
This occurs due to the fact that I2t withstand goes down exponentially with fuse link rating rather than linearly. Consequently, the 50 kvar capacitor fusing recommendations only cover those units with voltages up to 9960 V. Note: Use 150% tin type FL11T or FL11K expulsion fuse links. Refer to catalog CA132008EN.
The capacitor must be able to absorb this energy with a low probability of case rupture. Fuses are usually applied with some continuous current margin. The margin is typically in the range of 1.3 to 1.65 per unit. This margin is called the fusing factor.
The CIL current-limiting capacitor fuse has a two-part design. The high current section interrupts high 60 Hz fault currents and/or high frequency discharge current from parallel capacitors. The low voltage section consists of a standard NEMA Type K fuse link mounted in a fiber tube.
For 50 kvar capacitors, it is difficult to choose reasonably sized fuses that will withstand the I2t outrush. This occurs due to the fact that I2t withstand goes down exponentially with fuse link rating rather than linearly. Consequently, the 50 kvar capacitor fusing recommendations only cover those units with voltages up to 9960 V.
Either of these two effects can impede the proper operation of the fuse. In the event of a capacitor fault, excess current will flow through the fuse of the faulted unit. This current causes the fuse element to melt and vaporize. An arc will form across the vaporized section within the fuse tube.
