Quenching baffles for an electrical overload fuse

摘要

An overload fuse with a fusible conductor and quenching baffles is curved preferably forming a partial annulus, and several quenching baffles are disposed perpendicular to the fusible conductor. Due to its flat design, this fuse has only a small volume and at the same time a large switching capacity because the partial arcs formed between the quenching baffles are driven radially outward by the dynamic forces and are lengthened accordingly.
