Bolt-in Series E-rated fuses are single,
double or triple barrel (3” diam.) with end mounts
designed for bolting directly to equipment bus or
terminal pads. They are UL listed and are for use
indoors (or outdoors in a weatherproof enclosure).
The unique time-current characteristic of Ferraz
Shawmut E-rated fuses allows them to be closely
sized to transformer full load rated current, as
recommended by IEEE guidelines, without being
affected by normal magnetizing inrush current.
Bolt-in fuses are typically sized at transformer
rated current of 133%, thereby providing superior
overall protection.

DEFInITIOnS:
E-rating
E-rated fuses operate as follows:
Over 100E - must melt in 600 seconds (10 mins.)
on 220 to 264% of E (ampere) rating.
Example - A 750E fuse must melt in 600 seconds with an
applied current of 1650 to 1980 amperes.
General Purpose Current-Limiting Fuse
A general purpose current-limiting power fuse is one that is
capable of interrupting all currents from its rated interrupting
rating down to the current that causes melting of the fusible
element in one hour.
