How does stress affect the protection of capacitor banks by fuses?
Stress specific to the protection of capacitor banks by fuses, which is addressed in IEC 60549, can be divided into two types: Stress during bank energization (the inrush current, which is very high, can cause the fuses to age or blow) and Stress during operation (the presence of harmonics may lead to excessive temperature rises).
What is a capacitor bank protection fuse?
related to the starting of the motor defined in IEC 60644. The capacitor bank protection fuse-links are described in IEC 60549 (High-voltage fuses for the external protection of shunt capacitors) . Also in this case the fuse should meet the requirements described in the general standard IEC 6028
Are capacitor fuses capacitive limited?
Most 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.
What is a capacitor fusing factor?
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.
How do capacitor current limiting fuses work?
Capacitor current-limiting fuses can be designed to operate in two different ways. The COL fuse uses ribbons with a non-uniform cross section. This configuration allows the fuse to be used to interrupt inductively limited faults. The pressure is generated by the arc contained in the sealed housing.
What is a capacitor fuse used for?
The fuse, by its design, avoids absorbing all of the available energy on the series group. This fuse is used for capacitor banks with a large number of parallel capacitors. It can be used on applications with essentially infinite parallel stored energy, as long as sufficient back voltage can be developed to force the current to extinguish.
