IEC 60282-2:1995

Applies to high-voltage expulsion fuses and similar fuses in which the arc is extinguished by the expulsion effect of the gases produced by the arc, designed for outdoor and indoor use on a.c. power systems of 50 Hz and 60 Hz with rated voltages exceeding 1 000 V.

IEC 60282-2:2008 provides requirements for expulsion fuses designed for use outdoors or indoors on alternating current systems of 50 Hz and 60 Hz, and of rated voltages exceeding 1 000 V. The main changes with regard to the previous edition include: - Class C has been eliminated; - TRV values have been reviewed and, where appropriate, harmonized with IEC 62271-100:2001, its amendment 1 (2002) and amendment 2 (2006); - tests for non-ceramic insulators have been included; - a lightning surge impulse withstand test for fuse-links has been included; and - an homogeneous series has been redefined.
