Table 16 and 7.2.8 are revised as Class CA, CB and G fuses have temperature rises withintheir respective standards that are equal to or greater than the allowable rise for Class T fuses.STANDARD NUMBER: UL 98 -8-UL COPYRIGHTED MA

Based on the LRA of the NEC, the overload tables were revised (for small motors notincluded in the NEC tables, 430.110 (C)(3) of the NEC requires the LRA to be calculated as 6xFLA).4. Based on the FLA of the N

45、EC, the endurance tables were revised.5. Table 22 is revised to include values for Class CA and CB fuses and correct the number oflines for Class G fuses. While the Class G standard allows different let-through values for thedifferent fuse ratings, only the let-through values for the highest rating

The “Standard” rating correlates to non-time delay fuses, with a maximum fuse sizeof 300% FLA for ac an

The “Maximum” rating correlates to time delay fuses, with a maximum fuse size of175% FLA for ac and 150% for dcCopyright 2016 Underwriters Laboratories Inc.UL, in performing its functions in accordance with its objectives, does not guarantee or warrant thecorrectness of Certification Requirement Decisions it may issue or that they will be recognized or adoptedby anyone.
