Abb is well known for manufacturing and supplying of various types of capacitor fuses that are specially made for protecting power capacitors. Abb endows with fuse cxp, which is an outdoor expulsion fuse. Outstanding features of cxp fuses are as follows:
1 it is designed for outdoor use only. Cxp fuses exist in voltage classes of 8 kv, 15/20 kv and 25 kv.
2 the key application of the cxp is to fuse individual capacitor units in standard outdoor equipment.
3 these fuses have a parallel energy capability of 30,000 joules.
4 they are not normally applied with more than 20,000 joules of parallel energy, equivalent to 6000 kvar.
