High-speed fuses are one of the fastest fuses available in the market to interrupt an overcurrent condition. They are sometimes referred to as rectifier fuses, ultra-fast-acting fuses, very-fast-acting fuses, and semiconductor fuses. All these overcurrent protection devices are high-speed fuses. This specific high-speed fuse design consists of pure silver element bridges connected to silver-plated copper alloy end bells. They are encased in a high grade ceramic body with copper alloy end plates, which is filled with stone sand. Current flows through the element bridges from one end bell to the other. When an overcurrent occurs, the bridges quickly heat up and melt open. The resulting arc is quenched by the stone sand. What distinguishes a high-speed fuse from other types of fuses? Consider a high-speed fuse in a motor drive application. A traditional UL listed type fuse is a time-delay fuse, while a high-speed J fuse is fast-acting. Both fuses look similar but offer different types of circuit protection. If the UL listed type J fuse was incorrectly used for the drive application, the drive could be damaged before the time-delay fuse opened. So, make sure to verify that the Class aR marking or semiconductor symbol is on the fuse, identifying it as a high-speed fuse versus a general industrial fuse.
