Answer / k.prakashchandra
Fusing current for a round wire is approximately is equal to
k d^3/2 Amps.d=dia in mm, k=80 for copper, 12.8 for tin and
59 for Al.Fusing factor =minimum fusing current/current
rating of fuse.This value should be more than one and is
usually two.

Answer / karthik_elec
fuse is calculating with fuse factor, for example,
if u want to protect one equipment, that equipment taking 10 amps, if u put 10 amps fuse, that fuse will operate in 14.5 amps 4 hrs continues running, fuse factor is 1.45, fuse operating current = 1.45(fuse factor)*10(fuse rating). that means 14.5A 4hrs continues running. this is from IEC (INTERNATIONAL ELECTRO TECHNICAL COMMISSION)

Hi ,what the accurate method to set correct(In) over load to protect the 3~ motor
I have 90KW Motor 60 Hz,380V Pf 0,88. after testing the Motor without Load is the no load Current 36 A,but wenn i put load after 2 hours the current increase more than 156 A. Can anybode tell me waht is the Problem?
