FIGURE 4 Fuse sizing diagram
To determine what fuse rating must be used to reduce the
RMS prospective fault current from, say 30 kA to 5 kA,
determine the peak current equivalent of 5 kA by drawing
a vertical line from 5 kA on the X-axis to the cut-off line.
This peak current is 11,3 kA.
A fuse must be chosen which will not permit more than
this peak fault current to pass when a prospective fault cur-
rent of 30 kA is applied. Draw a horizontal line at 11,3 kA
peak current, and a vertical line from 30 kA prospective
RMS symmetrical current. The fuse line below the inter-
section of these two lines (100 A) is the largest fuse that
should be used, but any smaller fuse of the same type will
also be suitable.
