The use of cooling-factor curves for coordinating fuses and reclosers

This paper describes how to precisely coordinate distribution feeder automatic-circuit reclosers using cooling-factor data that accounts for the heating and cooling of source-side or load-side fuses throughout the recloser's operating sequence. This method yields results that are more accurate...

Zusammenfassung:This paper describes how to precisely coordinate distribution feeder automatic-circuit reclosers using cooling-factor data that accounts for the heating and cooling of source-side or load-side fuses throughout the recloser's operating sequence. This method yields results that are more accurate than other coordination methods commonly employed. Different coordination methods are discussed in this paper and the results are compared.
