why semiconductor fuse used in drive ,not ordinary?
Answer Posted / harish nair
Basically a drive means cluster of thyristors, these thyristors may fail when subject to 10mS(one half cycle in a 50 Hz system)pulse of only 10 times the RMS value of normal current.A normal fuse requires 15 to 30 times of its nominal ampere rating to melt with in 10mS, which is not fast enough to provide the protection, whereas a semiconductor fuse requires only 5 to 6 times it ampere rating to defuse thus ensuring fast action & protection to thyristor. It has a exponentional decay graph the greater the current the lesser operation time.

Dear all, I just want to ask an expert on this forum for some insights. For the magnetic balance test, when applied voltage on a Delta-Star transformer e.g. Dyn11, the following relationships apply for HV side: 1. H1-H2 = H2-H3 H3-H1 2. H2-H3 = H3-H1 H1-H2 3. H3-H1 = H1-H2 H2-H3 For the LV side also: 4. X1-X0 = X2-X0 X3-X0 5. X2-X0 = X3-X0 X1-X0 6. X3-X0 = X1-X0 X2-X0 Is there a similar pattern for Y-d, Y-Y, D-d? And how about Y-z, D-z, Z-y transformers? I've tested a YNzn5 transformer and for LV side I don't see the pattern. In this particular case I got for LV side the following (see values below): H1-H0 H2-H0 H3-H0 X0-X1 X0-X2 X0-X3 128.0 119.9 7.2 29.2 13.3 15.8 70.7 128.4 59.2 23.4 22.0 3.6 7.2 120.1 128.1 13.4 29.3 15.8 What is the relationship here for LV? For row 1 I see the relationship, for row 3 I also see but it's shifted, but for row 2 I don't see such relationship. Any suggestions, answers, someone?
