Product Overview

Wishpower 33kV-38kV drop out fuse is developed for outdoor distribution networks with voltage classes such as 33kV, 35kV, 36kV and 38kV. When overload or short-circuit current occurs, the fuse link melts and interrupts the fault current. After operation, the fuse tube drops down to provide a visible open point for line inspection and maintenance.

Key advantages include:

  1. Suitable for outdoor high voltage distribution systems
    It can be used for overhead lines, pole-mounted transformers, branch feeders, cable transitions and outdoor distribution equipment.

  2. Reliable insulation performance
    Polymer housing and porcelain housing options are available to meet different insulation, anti-pollution and weather-resistant requirements.

  3. Visible fault isolation
    After fuse operation, the fuse tube drops down and forms a clear disconnection point, making inspection easier.

  4. Easy installation and maintenance
    The compact structure supports pole-mounted installation and convenient fuse tube replacement.

  5. Strong environmental adaptability
    It is suitable for high temperature, humidity, pollution, coastal, sandy and long-term outdoor operating conditions.

Core Features

  1. Reliable overload and short-circuit protection
    The fuse operates when abnormal current occurs, helping prevent fault expansion in distribution networks.

  2. Visible open-point indication
    The drop-out tube provides a clear visual indication after operation, improving maintenance safety and efficiency.

  3. Excellent outdoor weather resistance
    The insulation structure offers good resistance to ultraviolet radiation, aging, moisture and pollution flashover.

  4. Compact structure and flexible installation
    It is suitable for poles, crossarms, distribution transformer stations and outdoor line branches.

  5. Optional load break function
    Standard protection type and load break type can be selected according to project requirements.

  6. Compatible with different fuse link ratings
    Fuse links can be selected based on transformer capacity, feeder load and protection coordination requirements.

Product Structure

The 33kV-38kV drop out fuse usually consists of the following components:

  1. Insulation support
    Polymer composite insulation or porcelain insulation provides the main insulating and mechanical support.

  2. Upper contact assembly
    It ensures stable contact with the upper end of the fuse tube and supports release during fuse operation.

  3. Lower contact assembly
    It supports the lower end of the fuse tube and maintains stable electrical and mechanical connection.

  4. Fuse tube assembly
    The fuse tube contains the fuse link and drops down after fault interruption.

  5. Fuse link
    Different rated current options are selected according to line protection requirements.

  6. Mounting bracket
    It is used for installation on poles, crossarms or outdoor distribution structures.

  7. Terminal connectors
    They connect incoming and outgoing conductors with reliable electrical conductivity and mechanical strength.
