In this paper, we deal with the I -t characteristic of low voltage distribution fuse (line fuse). That fuse element has two parts;One is low temperature melting element(LTME) to put up with over current and the other is high temperature melting element (HTME) which put up with large current. Melting charateristic of fuse is determined by L TME and HTME. So we verified their properties of fuse design, mathematically, by simulating the thermal and electric characteristics of each other. We simulated the I-t characteristic of line fuse by using the numerical method;Finite Element Method(FEM). Then, we could acquire very similar result at the HTME and L TME area when compared the simlation result with experimental one.

The purpose of this study is to secure the basis for judgment on the cause of an accident by analyzing the melting characteristics of a blade type fuse used for vehicles due to overload. In order to increase the reliability of the test, it was conducted by connecting the electrical system with conditions similar to those of an actual vehicle to apply the load. Carbonization pattern experiment of fuse by outside flame applied Korean Standard (KS). The fuse melted by the overcurrent showed a smooth cross-section while the test terminals, clear plastic body, etc., burnt out by the external flame was badly deformed. When 185% of the rated current (27.8A) was applied to a cable of 15A rated current onto which an over-capacity fuse (20A) was installed, the fuse melting time was 217 seconds. In addition, when a load current of 28.8[A] (139%) was applied, the fuse's test terminal and terminal blade were not burnt out although foam was observed on some parts of the plastic body. When a load capacity of 28.2[A] (141%) was applied to a cable of 15A rated current onto which an over-capacity fuse (30A) was installed, the fuse melting time was approximately 10 seconds. When a load current of 35.8[A] (119%) was applied, the fuse's test terminal and terminal blade were not burnt out, although some parts of the plastic body was swelled. However, it was observed that the switch terminal melted if approximately six minutes lapsed under such conditions. When a load capacity of 39.4[A] (131%) was applied to a cable of 15A rated current onto which an over-capacity fuse (30A) was installed, the fuse melted in approximately 69 seconds, and the test terminal and terminal blade were not burnt.

This paper aims to solve the problem deterioration of power fuses. The deterioration of a power fuse is a cause of failure misoperation by a normal current flowing reduplicatively to fuse the element. An extension survey of a load feature rerating power fuse examined the power fuse deterioration removal, the cause of the deterioration of the power fuse, the front-after, and the thermal variation of the inside transformer room electric power equipment. The transformer showed an average improvement of $6[^{\circ}C]$. The temperature of the electrical line showed $7{\sim}8[^{\circ}C]$ improvement. The static condenser and direct reactor was $2{\sim}3[^{\circ}C]$ high-state maintenance the temperature and equipment syntonization relationship. In the subject of study $0.5{\sim}1.0[^{\circ}C]$ stabilizing three phase power fuse temperature differential was. Suggestion in the transformer room environment power equipment between the cause temperature happen elimination to deterioration of power fuse and temperature rise control.

In this paper. we deal wish the I-t characteristic of law voltage distribution fuse. It is used to be thermal characteristic in being produced at fuse element part. The elements are divided low temperature melting element(LTME) by high temperature melting element(HTME). Those parts make of coordination. The characteristic of fuse is decided by material and design etc. used at element. We analysis I-t characteristic curve by using the numerical method. And we compared the curve of simulation with that of experiment

본 논문에서는 전기기구 접속부에서 발생되는 화재위험성을 분석하고자 일반적으로 전기기기에 사용되는 KIV($1.25\;mm^2$, 50가닥)전선을 사용하여, 인위적인 손상을 주어 길이 5 mm, 9 mm, 15 mm에 각각 소선수(50, 32, 16, 8, 4, 2, 1가닥)를 가진 반단선 시료를 제작하고, 제작된 시료에 차단기나 퓨즈 등 전기적인 안전장치가 동작하지 않는 정상전류(4 A, 8 A, 12 A, 16 A)를 300초간 인가한 후, 열화상카메라를 이용하여 반단선의 온도특성 및 발화가능성을 확인하였다.
