Abstract
The protective link is a device recently developed for internal mounting in transformer of a wide variety of types and ratings. Its most common application, however, is in distribution transformers where it serves to disconnect the transformer in case of internal fault. Its action in arc extinction depends on a number of factors including a novel arrangement of the lower terminal which allows it to be expelled from the link when heavy currents are interrupted.
