What is a DC fuse?
CHYT DC fuses are specifically designed to be utilized in Direct Current environments, providing a crucial function of separating the source from the load in the event of an abnormal situation. While they cannot be reused once they have performed their intended task, they offer a cost-effective alternative to Circuit Breakers.
What are DC fuses used for?
During instances of excessive current flow, the DC fuse is responsible for interrupting the circuit. Unlike in AC circuits, extinguishing the arc in a DC circuit is not as straightforward. Nevertheless, DC fuses serve as crucial safeguards for battery modules and packs and are dependable when it comes to clearing fault currents in DC circuits.
Are DC and AC fuses the same?
DC fuses are constructed differently than simple AC fuses and include additional components for arc extinguishing. The rated voltages for AC and DC fuses also vary. DC fuses are considered more advanced due to their complex design.
How does a DC fuse work?
When an excessive amount of current flows through a DC circuit, a fuse made of metal wire will melt and break the connection to the power source, thereby protecting the rest of the circuit from damage.
