Non-Load-break Fuse Operation

When non-load-break style fuse mountings are furnished, such
as the S&C type SM-5 or the clip style mountings to accom-
modate Cooper Type NX and Type Q, the fuse replacement
procedure would be similar to those for the Auto-jet
However, the following precautions should be observed when
work is performed on non-load-break fuses:
1. Any upstream device which could energize the fuse must
be opened and rendered inoperative to remove possibility
of inadvertently energizing the fuse.
2. Upon opening the fuse compartment door, the equipment
should be tested for the presence of voltage using a suit-
able voltage sensing device and hotstick arrangement.
3. If no voltage is present, the appropriate fuse terminal
should be grounded using proper device and technique.
4. Fuse(s) may then be removed and replaced using appropri-
ate fuse replacement procedures.
