The Ferraz Shawmut PSC fuses have been engineered to provide state-of-the-art  protection for SCR’s, diodes, thyristors, GTO’s and IGBT devices. They have pure silver, die-cut elements embedded in solidified sand, which helps control arcing characteristics for low I2t and high interrupting rating. All contact surfaces are silver plated and all hardware is non-magnetic.  All fuse links are equipped with a low voltage trip-indicator. This trip-indicator can operate a field mountable microswitch which is easily mounted directly onto the fuse even while in service.
