Frequently Asked Questions
What does the aR speed/characteristic mean?
The aR (partial range) characteristic indicates that the fuse is designed to protect semiconductor devices by interrupting overloads and short circuits quickly, but it does not provide full range protection for all types of faults.
Can this fuse be used in DC applications?
No, this fuse is rated for AC applications only, as specified in the technical specifications.
What is the significance of the striker indication system?
The striker provides a mechanical indication of fuse operation by physically moving to signal a blown fuse, allowing for quick visual inspection without disassembly.
Is this fuse compliant with international safety standards?
Yes, it meets IEC and UL standards for rated voltage and breaking capacity, ensuring reliable and safe operation worldwide.
