6 FAQs about [Energy storage battery system fuse selection]

Why do energy storage systems need special fuse inserts?

More energy storage systems are installed globally every day. Present-day battery systems often reach power outputs of several hundred MWh. That requires advanced protection using special fuse inserts. They have to dramatically reduce the current in response to a short circuit and interrupt it very quickly as well.

Why do batteries need fuses?

Modern-day battery and energy storage systems place huge demands on fuses. Constantly rising power levels at maximum DC voltages of 1500 V can generate short-circuit currents of several hundred kiloamperes. Another issue relates to load profiles produced by a wide variety of loading and unloading cycles.

How EV fuses are selected?

The fuse selection procedure is very similar to contactor selection and complementary parameters help to select EV fuses. Fuse datasheets include breaking current-time characteristics. Some of the fuse manufacturers also provide thermal and mechanical characteristics. Fuses are simple busbars with melting elements inside.

What is a fuse datasheet?

Fuse datasheets include breaking current-time characteristics. Some of the fuse manufacturers also provide thermal and mechanical characteristics. Fuses are simple busbars with melting elements inside. Therefore, the initial step is always to define the mechanical and thermal boundaries of the fuse.

Are EV fuses complex?

Fuses are not complex elements but the manufacturers make optimizations such as coating and melting element refining. Therefore, application-specific fuse behaviors can differ. EV fuse manufacturers suggest not to exceed 50% of the fuse melting currents in a normal operation.

How does a fuse break a circuit?

Since the fuse’s internal resistance is almost constant, fuse-breaking energy is shown as I 2 t in the datasheets. At fuse-breaking current, the melting element increases in temperature, changing its phase from solid to liquid. During this change, bottlenecks break the circuit and electrical arcs happen.
