Hi
In an application, we are using a 500Vac fuse (30A)
For some strange reason I want to use 2 250Vac fuses in series
Anyone know if this will work?
When a overcurrent situation arises, a fuse will break open (melt) and arching will occur (if the rating is not sufficient).
If a 250Vac fuse is used, then the arcing will probably continue, but then my hope is that the second fuse will melt (and break) since the short is still in place.
When both fuses has meltet, we then have the needed 500Vac rating/tolerance.
Anyone know if this makes sense and has practical experience?
Thanks
Klaus
