gG CYLINDRICAL
Cylindrical fuse links gG class for use as general protection against overloads and short circuits, intended as protection of

cables, power lines and equipment. Made of ceramic tube with high withstand to internal pressure and thermal shock, that
allow a high breaking capacity in a reduced physical space. The melting elements are specially designed in order to avoid aging
and thus maintain unalterable the electrical characteristics. Contact caps are made of silver plated copper. Versions available
with fusing indicator or with striker for use in fuse holders with microswitch.

DC APLICATIONS
Fuses are generally suitable for both AC and DC applications. The DC performance of fuse-links is different and AC ratings cannot be
used for DC applications. There is no simple rule that safely converts an AC voltage rating of a fuse-link to DC voltage rating. For this
reason it is necessary to take into account a lot of aspects in order to determine the DC applications.
In the DF ELECTRIC gG cylindrical fuses it is necessary to take into account the following considerations:
The power dissipations are the same in AC (RMS value) and the DC values.
The time current characteristics are the same for DC applications under steady-state conditions.
The DC rated voltage and maximum breaking capacity are lower than the AC values (see the table).

NOTES
These values are referred to a time constant L/R = 15 ms.
For higher values of time constant, the maximum utilization voltage must be reduced.
For circuits with very inductive behaviour, we recommend to connect two fuses in series.
