Every time I hear or read something about high voltage fuses, I’m convinced that15 years ago in the UK, we made the right choice by moving away from high voltage fuses to circuit-breakers.
If we take the first argument I read in a previous article, that a fuse-switch is a cost effective solution, this is in fact a myth. In the past it was true due to the physical size of the old circuit-breakers. Now, compact RMUs with dedicated circuit breakers and self-powered relays have the same life time costs as fuse-switch solutions and have far more useful features.
