Product Overview
The PRWG2-35/200A drop-out fuse has a rated voltage of 35 kV and a rated current of 200 A, and is used for short-circuit and overload protection of distribution lines of 35 kV and below. With a creepage distance of 1440 mm, the PRWG2-35/200A is used for short-circuit and overload protection of distribution lines in 35 kV polluted areas.
Working Principle
The drop-out fuse is a short-circuit and overload protection device for distribution lines. Under normal operation the fuse tube is fixed on the static contact by trunnions; when an overload or short circuit occurs in the line, the fuse melts and the fuse tube falls under gravity, forming a clearly visible break that isolates the faulty line for inspection and fuse replacement.
Main Technical Parameters
| Model | Rated voltage (kV) | Rated current (A) | Breaking current (A) | Lightning impulse withstand voltage (kV) | 1-min power-frequency withstand voltage (kV) | Creepage distance (mm) | Weight (kg) | Outline dimensions (cm) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PRWG2-35/100A | 35 | 100 | 6300 | 170 | 105 | 1440 | 20 | 90x40x17 |
| PRWG2-35/200A | 35 | 200 | 8000 | 170 | 105 | 1440 | 20 | 90x40x17 |
The PRWG2-35/200A drop-out fuse has a rated breaking current of 8000 A, a lightning impulse withstand voltage of 170 kV, a weight of 20 kg and outline dimensions of 90×40×17 cm.
Structure
- Arc extinguishing chamber;
- Parallel-groove connector: cast brass; even with inconsistent dimensions, connection is simple thanks to the 2 guide sleeves, and other connector types are also compatible;
- Link hook: for use with the switching operating rod;
- Fuse tube: fibreglass with a special UV-resistant coating; versions with an isolating-switch blade are available;
- Metal ferrule: cast red copper, pinned to the top and bottom of the fuse tube as a permanent connection;
- Collar joint: ensures reliable tripping;
- High-strength insulator;
- Trunnion sleeve: holds the fuse tube on the hinge when closed;
- Trunnion: high-strength cast bronze, silver-plated; the trunnion surface presses on the hinge surface, keeping the fuse tube aligned when closed.
