RECOMMENDATIONS FUSING
It is recommended to use semiconductor (fast acting) type fuses or circuit
breakers (Semiconductor – MCB) for unit protection. On initial switch on some
loads may need an increased Factor of Safety (F of S) for unit and/or device
protection. See SRA datasheet for information.
