S&C - Model Type XS -Fuse Cutout
S&C Type XS Fuse Cutouts, when fused with S&C Positrol® Fuse Links, provide full-fault-spectrum protection for overhead distribution systems rated 4.16 kV through 25 kV, whether applied on overhead transformers, capacitors, cables or lines.
For outdoor distribution, 4.16 kV through 25 kV
When fused with S&C Positrol® Fuse Links, S&C Type XS Fuse Cutouts provide full-fault-spectrum protection to overhead distribution systems
This performance also extends to solidly grounded systems rated 26.4 kV through 34.5 kV, for protection of single-phase-to-neutral lines and transformers and grounded-wye-connected capacitor banks. “Full-fault-spectrum protection” means that Type XS Fuse Cutouts will interrupt all faults — from the lowest current that will melt the fuse link to the maximum rated interrupting current — under all realistic transient-recovery-voltage conditions.
S&C’s Type XS Fuse Cutouts are manufactured in accordance with a quality system certified to ISO9001:2000.
All Type XS Fuse Cutouts employ an S&C-developed innovation — single venting, down and away only — an especially important feature where exhaust must be kept out of other phases in overbuilt circuits. There are no costly-to-replace expendable fuse-tube caps.
Type XS Fuse Cutouts provide superior mechanical handling and electrical performance, including:
- Easy fuse link installation — even with gloved hands
- Easy fuse tube insertion (and removal)
- Superb alignment when closing — from any angle and under adverse conditions of light and weather
- No fuse link breakage
- Completely reliable dropout action — regardless of fault-current level
- Mates perfectly with S&C’s Loadbuster® Tool — for sure, reliable load switching
Single-Shot Overhead — Pole-Top Style Type XS Fuse Cutouts are sold in the U.S. and Canada by MacLean Power Systems. For additional information, please visit their website at www.macleanpower.com.
