Bussmann 170M7358 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Bussmann 170M7358 fit a standard NH1 fuse holder or disconnect?
Yes. The 170M7358 is a size NH1 IEC fuse-link, so it drops into standard NH1 bases, holders and NH1 fuse disconnects. Body dimensions are 135 mm high, 52.9 mm deep and 39.7 mm wide, and it weighs about 407 g, so allow for the mass when it is mounted in a hinged door disconnect.
2) Can I use the Bussmann 170M7358 on a 600V or 480V AC drive circuit?
Yes. It is rated 800 V AC, which is a maximum, so it applies at any system voltage up to that figure including 480 V and 600 V AC circuits. It is an AC-rated fuse-link only, so don't apply it to a DC bus without a DC rating for the part.
3) What does Class gR mean on a semiconductor fuse, and is it different from aR?
gR is a full-range semiconductor fuse: it clears both short-circuit faults and lower-level overloads, so it can protect a circuit on its own. The 170M7358 carries the gR utilization category for general purpose semiconductor protection. An aR fuse is partial-range, back-up only, and needs a separate overload device such as a breaker or overload relay in series. If your drive or rectifier design assumes the fuse handles overload as well as fault current, gR is the category you want.
4) Is 65 kA enough interrupting capacity for my switchgear fault current?
The 170M7358 is rated 65 kA breaking capacity and 65 kAIC interrupt. That covers any point in the system where the available fault current calculated for that bus is at or below 65 kA at 800 V AC or less. Above that, the fuse is misapplied and you need a device with a higher interrupting rating.
5) What I2t values do I use to coordinate this fuse with my IGBT or SCR?
Pre-arc (melting) I2t is 10200 and total clearing I2t is 140000. The rule for semiconductor protection is that the fuse's clearing I2t must stay below the I2t withstand of the device it protects, so compare 140000 against the rated I2t of your SCR or diode. Use the 10200 pre-arc figure when checking selectivity against an upstream fuse.
6) Can I substitute a standard Class J or RK5 200A fuse for this high-speed semiconductor fuse?
No. A Class J or RK5 branch-circuit fuse clears far too slowly to protect power semiconductors. The 170M7358 is a high-speed link with a 10200 pre-arc I2t sized to open before an SCR or IGBT fails. Swapping in a general-purpose 200 A fuse will leave the drive's power stage unprotected even though the amp rating matches. Replace it with a high-speed NH1 link of the same 200 A, 800 V AC and gR ratings.
7) How much heat does the 170M7358 put into an enclosed panel?
Rated watt loss is 25 W at full 200 A load. In a sealed or gasketed enclosure, count that per fuse when you size ventilation or a panel cooler. Three fuses on a three-phase drive input means roughly 75 W of added heat inside the box at rated current.
8) Can a tech tell if this fuse has blown without pulling it out of the holder?
Yes. The 170M7358 has a combination (dual) fuse status indicator, so a blown element shows visually at the fuse. That means a maintenance electrician can confirm the fault from the front of the disconnect instead of de-energizing and removing a 200 A NH1 link to meter it.
9) Does the Bussmann 170M7358 come with insulated gripping lugs for hot handling?
No. The 170M7358 is supplied without insulated metal gripping lugs (IMGL), so removal and installation is done with an NH fuse puller handle rather than by gripping the blade ends. If your maintenance procedure specifies IMGL-equipped links, this is not the right part number.
10) Is the Bussmann 170M7358 approved for use in a UL panel build and for export to Europe?
It is UL Recognized and CE Marked. UL Recognized means it is a component approved for use inside listed equipment such as a drive panel or motor control center, rather than a standalone listed device. The CE mark covers it for IEC-standard installations, which matters if the assembly ships into Europe.
11) Where is a 200A high-speed NH1 fuse-link like this typically used?
Input and DC-link protection on variable frequency drives, rectifier and converter stacks, soft starters and other industrial power electronics, plus feeders in motor control centers and switchgear where the load is a semiconductor device. The 200 A, 800 V AC rating with gR full-range characteristic suits drive branch circuits where the fuse is the only overcurrent device on that leg.
