4.1.2 Fuses
Branch circuit protection
In order to protect the installation against electrical and fire hazard, all branch circuits in an installation, switch gear, machines, etc., must be short-circuit
and overcurrent protected according to the national/international regulations.
Short circuit protection
The adjustable frequency drive must be protected against short-circuit to avoid electrical or fire hazard. Danfoss recommends using the fuses mentioned
below to protect service personnel or other equipment in case of an internal failure in the unit. The adjustable frequency drive provides full short circuit
protection in case of a short circuit in the motor output.
