7.1 Fuses

F1 & F2 - see the example circuit diagram.

F1

Supply Fuses:

Supply fuses are not fitted internally unless the furnace is also fitted with a supply cable; when
fitted they are of GEC Safeclip of the type shown.

Customers should fuse at the rating shown.

F2

Control Fuses: 2 Amp type F 30mm x 6mm

Thyristor Fuse:

Ferraz Protistor of the rating shown. Note that, unlike most fuses, protistor fuses

are correctly rated at a higher current than the thyristor they are protecting.

7.2 Power Control

The setting for the power limit parameter in the controller (

OP.Hi

) should be 100% for all models.

The thyristor stacks are set to the secondary (element) maximum currents given in the table.
