addendum Explanation: The NH reference may also be found in Siemens. A quick Google search yielded some interesting finds, check, for instance, these or related pages: Switch fuses (Switch Disconnector Fuse) are quite different. They are a switch connected in series with a fuse (combination of fuse link and fuse holder) to make a composite device. The switch fuse is normally a stand-alone unit housed in an enclosure, usually sheet steel. This is well proven approach to distribution networks, used for switching, isolating and for the protecting of individual loads. www.enbray.co.uk/faqsf.htm http://www.bussmann.co.uk/frequently_asked_questions.htm Reference: http://www.enbray.co.uk/faqsf.htm Reference: http://www.bussmann.co.uk/frequently_asked_questions.htm |
