When an overcurrent condition occurs, the CLiP-LV Current Limiting Protector senses it and quickly opens the bus bar, transferring (or commutating) the current to a parallel, low-continuous rated current-limiting fuse that interrupts the fault.
Sensing faults electronically permits a more specific and predictable operating point than traditional fuses, and the parallel current-limiting fuse of the CLiP-LV is not subject to aging, as seen with traditional fuses. Furthermore, pre-conditioning (performance curve shifting) does not occur, either.
- Rated for continuous currents of 4000A in applications to 750 VAC
- Field resettable trigger level ranges and interrupt capabilities up to 100kA
