Title :
Electronic Fuse Overcurrent Protection
Author :
Williams, Charlie
Abstract :
The use of fuse save schemes to avoid sustained outages due to temporary faults is well known in the utility industry. The scheme is limited in application due to fault current levels fuse speeds and relay-breaker speeds. This paper describes application of electronic sectionalizers to overcome these limitations and the results of implementation of such a scheme
