POWR-GARD® Fuses—MediumVoltage
E-RATED MEDIUM VOLTAGE FUSES
Current-Limiting
Description
Characteristics
E-rated fuses have time current characteristics designed to
provide current-limiting protection for power transformers,
potential transformers, power centers, feeder centers, and unit
sub stations. When properly applied, they can protect against
high and low fault currents.
Voltage Ratings:
Current Range:
2,750 V – 38,000 V
10E – 600E
Options
•ꢀ Hermetically sealed for use in hazardous locations
NEMA Standards for E-rated medium voltage fuses require that
fuses rated 100E or less open within 300 seconds
(add “S” suffix to part number)
•ꢀ Clip-lock (CL) and bolt-in styles available.
(5 minutes) when subjected to an RMS value of 200-240% of
the fuse continuous current rating; and fuses with an
E rating larger than 100E must open within 600 seconds
(10 minutes) when subjected to an RMS current of 220-240%
of the fuse’s continuous current rating. These values establish
one point on the time-current curve.

Application Note
Since these fuses are used for the protection of general
purpose circuits which may contain transformers, motors, and
other equipment producing in-rush and/or overload currents,
fuses should generally be rated at 140% of the normal full load
current, and circuits should be analyzed

to ensure that system load currents will not exceed the current
rating of the fuse.
