NGT1 Semiconductor Fuse Applications
NGT1 Semiconductor Fuse FAQs
1、Can the NGT1 fuse be used in renewable energy systems?
Yes. The NGT1’s high breaking capacity (100kA) and wide voltage range (400V–1000V AC) make it perfectly suited for solar and wind inverter applications, where transient overcurrents must be cleared instantly to protect converters and grid interface equipment.
2、What does the protection category “aR” mean?
The “aR” designation indicates an auxiliary, current-limiting fuse for semiconductor device protection. In IEC terminology, aR fuses have a shorter range than gG fuses: they are intended only for semiconductor circuits. Practically, this means the NGT1 fuse is engineered to clear short-circuits rapidly (and with limited overload range), as required when protecting diodes and transistors. The NGT000’s aR rating also matches industry norms for semiconductor fuses used worldwide.
3、What are some typical installation tips?
The NGT1 should be mounted in a proper fuse holder or onto busbars using the specified torque (e.g, ~21 N·m for M10 studs). Ensure the holder or terminals are clean and the fuse is fully seated. Avoid mounting near sources of excessive vibration or heat. It’s recommended to replace a blown NGT1 only with the same type and rating to maintain protection integrity.
