switchgear
OEFMA
Specifications
Description:
BS 2692-1 medium
voltage fuses for use on the primary
circuit of three-phase 50Hz trans-
formers in oil field switchgear. Fitted
with powerful pyrotechnic striker pin.
Ratings:
Volts: — 3.6-24kV
Amps: — 6.3-200A
IR: — 25-50kA (See Catalog Number table below)
Agency Information:
Fuses comply with IEC 60282-1,
BS2692-1 and ESI Standard 12-8. 7.2 and 12kV fuses tested
at highest system voltage and approved by the UK Electricity
Association approvals panel.

This Catalog Number selection table is based upon the following criteria:
1. Withstand against magnetizing inrush current taken as 12 times full-load current for 0.1 second.
2. Withstand against 150% permissible overload current. Recommendations marked with asterisks have the following significance:-
*Limited to permissible overloads of 130%.
**Permits use of a 12kV OHFMA 80A fuse with a 100kVA transformer where permissible overload does not exceed 130%.
3. For 6.6kV systems, 12kV fuses are recommended where possible in the interests of standardization.
4. Wherever possible, 10 inch long FO1 fuses are offered rather than equivalent 14 inch FO2 types.
5. The above recommendations are not generally applicable to transformers feeding motor circuits with starting currents in excess of the transformer full load current. In this event, please consult
Cooper Bussmann.
