Feeder assembly, type of coordination 2
Feeder assembly, type of coordination 2
In order to achieve type of coordination 2, you must provide protection for all power
semiconductors against short circuits by means of special semiconductor fuses (e.g. SIEMENS
SITOR). A short circuit can occur, for instance, as a result of a defect in the motor windings or in
the motor's power supply cable.
