Better Protection Against Motor Single Phasing
When secondary single-phasing occurs, the current in the remain-
ing phases increases to approximately 200% rated full load
current. (Theoretically 173%, but change in efficiency and power
factor make it about 200%.) When primary single-phasing
occurs, unbalanced voltages occur on the motor circuit causing
currents to rise to 115%, and 230% of normal running currents
in delta-wye systems.
Dual-element fuses sized for motor running overload protection
will help to protect motors against the possible damages of
single-phasing.
Classes of Fuses
Safety is the industry mandate. However, proper selection, overall
functional performance and reliability of a product are factors
which are not within the basic scope of listing agency activities.
In order to develop its safety test procedures, listing agencies
develop basic performance and physical specifications or stan-
dards for a product. In the case of fuses, these standards have
culminated in the establishment of distinct classes of low-voltage
(600V or less) fuses; classes RK1, RK5, G, L, T, J, H and CC being
the more important.
The fact that a particular type of fuse has, for instance, a classifi-
cation of RK1, does not signify that it has the identical function or
performance characteristics as other RK1 fuses. In fact, the LIM-
ITRON
dual-element, time-delay fuse are both classified as RK1.
Substantial differences in these two RK1 fuses usually requires
considerable difference in sizing. Dimensional specifications of
each class of fuse does serve as a uniform standard.
Class R Fuses
Class R (“R” for rejection) fuses are high performance, ⁄Ω ¡ º to 600A
units, 250V and 600V, having a high degree of current limitation
and a short-circuit interrupting rating of up to 300,000A (rms sym-
metrical). BUSS Class R's include Classes RK1 LOW-PEAK YEL-
LOW
have replaced BUSS K1 LOW-PEAK and LIMITRON fuses and
K5 FUSETRON fuses. These fuses are identical, with the excep-
tion of a modification in the mounting configuration called a “rejec-
tion feature”. This feature permits Class R fuses to be mounted in
rejection type fuseclips. “R” type fuseclips prevent older type
Class H, ONE-TIME and RENEWABLE fuses from being installed.
The use of Class R fuseholders is thus an important safeguard.
The application of Class R fuses in such equipment as disconnect
switches permits the equipment to have a high interrupting rating.
NEC Articles 110-9 and 230-65 require that protective devices
have adequate capacity to interrupt short-circuit currents. Article
240-60(b) requires fuseholders for current-limiting fuses to reject
non-current-limiting type fuses.

Branch-Circuit Listed Fuses
Branch-circuit listed fuses are designed to prevent the installation
of fuses that cannot provide a comparable level of protection to
equipment.
The characteristics of Branch-circuit fuses are:
1. They must have a minimum interrupting rating of 10,000A
2. They must have a minimum voltage rating of 125V.
3. They must be size rejecting such that a fuse of a lower

voltage rating cannot be installed in the circuit.
rating higher than the fuseholder rating cannot be installed.
