19、, Part I.1.2This Standard covers(a)fuseholders intended for use with fuses covered by the CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 248 series of Standards when no fuseholder is specified in the CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 4248 series;(b) High rupture capacity (HRC) fuses not exceeding 6000 A and 600 V and conforming to CSA C22.2 No

20、. 106; and(c) fuseholder accessories (e.g., covers, indicators, adapters, etc.).1.3This Standard does not cover fuseholders for renewable fuses (i.e., Class H-Renewable fuses) which are covered by CSA C22.2 No. 4248.6, Fuseholders, Part 6, Class H.1.4This Standard specifies requirements for the oper

21、ating conditions, classification and characteristics, construction, tests, and markings of fuseholders.1.5In CSA standards, “shall” is used to express a requirement, i.e., a provision that the user is obliged to satisfy in order to comply with the standard; “should” is used to express a recommendati

22、on or that which is advised but not required; and “may” is used to express an option or that which is permissible within the limits of the standard.Notes accompanying clauses do not include requirements or alternative requirements; the purpose of a note accompanying a clause is to separate from the

29、 conductive parts.Cold-moulded composition may consist of materials such as phenolic, melamine, or melamine-phenolic compounds, and includes materials having filler systems of fibrous (other than synthetic organic) types; but, excludes fibre reinforcement systems using resins that are applied in liq

30、uid form. Synthetic organic fillers are considered acceptable at temperatures not greater than 105 C. Cold-moulded composition may also consist of inorganic (e.g., hydraulic cement) compounds.Contacts the parts of the fuseholder that provide electrical contact between the fuse (fuse-link) and the fu

31、seholder.Creepage the shortest distance along the surface of the insulating material between two conductive parts.Dummy fuse a device used during the test for verification of temperature rise.Enclosed fuseholder an insulated enclosure that holds, supports, and surrounds the fuse. Notes: (1) Exposed

32、terminals are typically inaccessible from the outside of equipment after installation.(2) Types of enclosed fuseholders include panel mount, in-line, and modular fuseholders.Fuseholder a device that(a)provides mechanical support for a fuse;(b) maintains creepage and clearance for a fuse;(c) provides

33、 means to connect a fuse in a circuit; and(d) allows for fuse replacement.Fuse a protective device that opens a circuit during specified overcurrent conditions by means of a current-responsive element.In-line fuseholder a type of enclosed fuseholder that is in line with the application wiring and ha

34、s two separable halves. Note: The fuse remains in the load side housing when the two halves are separated.Live parts conductive parts that are intended to operate at a potential different from that of the earth.Open-fuse indicator a means to indicate that a fuse has operated.Panel mount fuseholder a

35、 type of enclosed fuseholder that is mounted through a panel and includes a removable fuse carrier. Notes: (1) The carrier extends outside the panel and contains the fuse. (2) The housing is located behind the panel. (3) Line and load side terminals are located behind the panel. (4) The housing is s

36、ecured to the panel.Rating a designated limit on operating characteristics based on specified conditions, such as current, voltage, and frequency.Current rating the maximum ampere rating, based on specified conditions, that is assigned to a fuseholder.Note: Each fuseholder can accommodate a range of
