The fuse mount is available at either 17 or 27 kV and is designed to withstand the most hazardous environmental conditions. The contact system is made from a copper alloy ensuring a long service life in the field. ® The fuse mount already has the outdoor fittings, so simply adding a Cooper Bussmann BBU fuse-link will deliver a complete outdoor transformer protection solution. ® The Cooper Bussmann range of BBU fuse-links can be used indoors as well as outdoors. A muffler attachment can be ordered to limit noise and contamination to indoor equipment during operation. BBUs fuse-links are designed to be interchangeable with other leading manufacturers and are available from 17 kV through to 38 kV, from 3 to 200 amps, with K, E and SE time-current characteristics. The Boric Acid fuse-link employs calibrated silver elements combined with boric acid crystals for its interruption media. The mechanical utilization of the spring and road mechanism creates an interruption technique that offers mild exhaustion during fault interruption. Boric Acid fuse-links are ideally suited to provide distribution transformer protection within electrical distribution networks. Features of BBU Fuse-Links ® A complete distribution transformer package from a single source – Cooper Bussmann offers a single source for all of your protection needs; both fuse-link and fuse mount are fully interchangeable with other manufacturers product lines. ® Additionally, customers can benefit from access to Cooper Bussmann other protection products in medium and low voltage delivering effective vendor based reduction, lowering procurement costs. Sealed fuse-links – All BBU fuse-links are sealed from moisture ingress, preventing deterioration of performance in the field and improving overall network reliability while reducing costs. ® Fully tested – Cooper Bussmann BBU fuse-links are tested to both ANSI C.37 and the Australian standard AS1033.1, which due to Australia’s unique landscape and harsh climate, is widely regarded as the most onerous type test of expulsion fuse-link style protection in the world today. ® Single piece end fittings – The Cooper Bussmann fuse-link package comes with single piece end fittings, reducing set-up time in the field and lowering inventory, thereby improving network productivity. Single wrench installation – the fuse-links are designed to be installed with a single type of tool, again reducing maintenance, replacement and installation costs Other features to improve safety and overall reliability include the use of a Nichrome strain element, to reduce susceptibility to spurious operation in the field caused by vibration and corona, a glass epoxy tube, preventing warping during long time exposure and permanent date marking facilitating a more robust Operation & Maintenance regime.

Main operating parts are the silver element, arcing rod, boric acid cylinder and spring. A glass epoxy tube encloses the assembly. The use of a pure silver element and Nichrome wire strain element makes the BBU less susceptible to outages caused by vibration, corona corrosion, and aging of the fuse elements. It is not damaged by transient faults or overloads which approach the minimum melt point. BBU Fuse Construction The components are housed in a fiberglass reinforced resin tube with plated copper contacts. Positive connection is maintained between the arcing rod and contact with a sliding tulip contact.

Fault interruption is achieved by the striking the latch mechanism. action of an arcing rod and a charged spring, elongating On indoor applications, this action caused the blown fuse the arc through a boric acid chamber upon release by the indicator to actuate. fuse element. When replacing the blown fuse-link, the end fittings should At high temperatures, boric acid decomposes producing a be removed from the operated fuse unit, and if blast of water vapor and inert boric anhydride. Electrical undamaged, clamped onto the new fuse unit. interruption is caused by the steam extinguishing the arc, as the arc is being elongated through the cylinder. Higher particle turbulence of the boric acid causes the rate of de-ionization in the cylinder to exceed the ionization of the electrical arc. Both high and low current faults are interrupted in the same manner with no foreign material other than the boric acid required. This enables the fuse to interrupt short circuits within one-half cycle and prevents the arc from restriking after a current zero. After interruption, the gases are expelled from the bottom of the fuse. The arching rod is prevented from falling back into its original position by a friction stop at the top of the fuse unit. Element Vapor Rod withdraws, Melts elongating arc and quenches arc at first vaporizing Boric current zero Acid Application The BBU Boric acid Fuse provides effective protection for circuits and equipment which operate on voltage systems up to 34,500V. They can be used on industrial distribution systems and all fuses are designed for use on the following: ● Power Transformers ● Feeder Circuits ● Distribution Transformers ● Metal-enclosed Switchgear ● Pad Mount Switches BBU Fuse units can be used in indoor applications, and can be used to directly replace competitive equivalent units.

Verify the presence of this oxidation inhibiting grease, and that it is still free of (from) contaminants. If necessary, clean the contact rod with a nontoxic, nonflammable solvent and apply a coating of oxidation-inhibiting grease. End Fittings should be stored in the original shipping package (if possible) in an area free from excessive moisture. End Fitting should only be attached immediately prior to installation. Re-used Fuse-Unit End Fittings Remove the existing coating of oxidation-inhibiting grease, and any dirt from the contact rod using a nontoxic, nonflam- mable solvent. Inspect the contact rod for evidence of pitting. If pitting has occurred, file down any projections, abrade the surface, until smooth with an abrasive cloth or scratch brush, and wipe clean. Apply a new coating of oxidation- inhibiting grease, to the contact rod. If the contact has been burned, the contact and its mating part should be replaced.

Exacting standards have been established relative to the design, testing and application of expulsion type power fuses. Compliance with these standards ensures the best selection and performance. Type BBU Power Fuses are designed and tested for compliance to global standards such as ANSI and Australian Standard AS1033.1 1990. ANSI (American National Standards Institute) is a nonprofit, privately funded membership organization that coordinates the development of U.S. voluntary national standards. These standards are designed to test the performance of the equipment under a variety of performance criteria as outlined in the relevant publication. These tests verify the fuse-link performance under high short circuit currents. A problem of major significance for countries with a hot dry climate, such as Australia, is the ignition of ground fires as a result of the emission of incandescent particles from expulsion fuse-links. Tests have shown it is possible for a grass fire to be initiated resulting in the loss of property and in extreme conditions loss of life. As a result the Australian Standard has included a “Fire Spark Test” capable of recording the existence of hot emissions and qualifying them according to their potential for fire ignition. In addition this Fire Spark Test is included for all of the 5 Duty test programs including test Duty 4 where all fuse-links are tested not just highest and lowest current ratings in a homogenous series. AS 1033.1 1990 is the most arduous testing standards for expulsion fuse-links in the world. Testing Cooper Bussmann BBU Power Fuse-links and Fuse Mounts were tested for compliance to the standards listed below on production fuse-links, mounts and fitting accessories. This testing was carried out in independent test laboratories in Canada and in Australia by recognized independent power testing laboratories. Thermal and interrupting testing was conducted at 17, 27kV. The entire series of tests was conducted in a specific sequence as stipulated by governing standards without any maintenance being performed. All test results are verified by laboratory tabulations and oscillogram plots. • ANSI C37.40 - Service Conditions and Definitions • ANSI C37.41 - Power Fuse Design and Testing • ANSI C37.42 - Distribution Fuse Ratings and Specification • ANSI C37.46 - Power Fuse Ratings and Specifications • ANSI C37.48 - Power Fuse Application, Operation and Maintenance • AS1033.1 1990 – Australian Standard High Voltage Fuses Expulsion type Quality Every effort is made to ensure the delivery of quality fuse units and customer satisfaction. All Cooper Bussmann fuses are completely inspected at each manufacturing stage. In addition to ongoing quality control inspections, testing is performed prior to shipment. A Micro-Ohm resistance test is performed on each fuse to assure proper element construction, alignment and tightness of electrical connections. Construction integrity testing is also performed on every unit. Each BBU fuse unit is checked to ensure that all items are supplied in keeping with manufacturing drawings. Individual fuses are packed in a plastic bag and then put into individual cartons. In addition, fuses are over packed in a shipping carton to prevent shipping damage.

Frequently asked questions

How does Electronics Finder differ from its competitors?

chervon down
Electronics Finder' parent company, GID Industrial, specializes in procuring industrial parts. We know where to find the rare and obsolete equipment that our customers need in order to get back to business. We stand apart from our competition through our commitment to quality, and look forward to the opportunity to show you how.

Is there a warranty for the BBU-EFOD?

chervon down
The warranty we offer will be based on what we negotiate with our suppliers. Sometimes, a part will be sold as-is and without a warranty. We usually offer a one-year warranty for single board computers in particular because they are our specialty.

Which carrier will Electronics Finder use to ship my parts?

chervon down
We use FedEx, UPS, DHL, and USPS. We have accounts with each of them and generally ship using one of those, but we can also ship using your account if you would prefer. We are able to ship with other carriers if you would find it more convenient.

Can I buy parts from Electronics Finder if I am outside the USA?

chervon down
Electronics Finder will definitely serve you. We work with international clients all the time, which means we are regularly shipping goods all across the globe.

Which payment methods does Electronics Finder accept?

chervon down
Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express are all accepted by Electronics Finder. We will also accept payment made with wire transfer or PayPal. Checks will only be accepted from customers in the USA. Terms may be offered (upon approval) for larger orders.

HARD TO FIND A BETTER PROVIDER

star star star star star

Our company provides services to aid in the manufacture of technological products, such as semiconductors and flat panel displays, and often searching for distributors of obsolete product we require can waste time and money. Finding GID Industrial proved to be a great asset to our company, with cost effective solutions and superior knowledge on all of their materials, it’d be hard to find a better provider of obsolete or hard to find products.

CONSISTENTLY DELIVERS QUALITY SOLUTIONS

star star star star star

Over the years, the equipment used in our company becomes discontinued, but they’re still of great use to us and our customers. Once these products are no longer available through the manufacturer, finding a reliable, quick supplier is a necessity, and luckily for us, GID Industrial has provided the most trustworthy, quality solutions to our obsolete component needs.

TERRIFIC RESOURCE

This company has been a terrific help to us (I work for Trican Well Service) in sourcing the Micron Ram Memory we needed for our Siemens computers. Great service! And great pricing! I know when the product is shipping and when it will arrive, all the way through the ordering process.

When I can't find an obsolete part, I first call GID and they'll come up with my parts every time. Great customer service and follow up as well. Scott emails me from time to time to touch base and see if we're having trouble finding something.....which is often with our 25 yr old equipment.
