HRC fuse has a rupturing capacity of capability _________ in comparison with a circuit breaker.

  • HRC fuse has a rupturing capacity of capability Less than in comparison with a circuit breaker.
  • Both HRC fuses and circuit breakers have different ratings for their interrupting or rupturing capacity.
  • The interrupting capacity is the maximum current that the device can safely interrupt or rupture without causing damage to the device itself or the system.
  • The actual rupturing capacity of an HRC fuse depends on its rating, which is determined by the maximum short-circuit current that it can safely interrupt.
  • Similarly, the actual rupturing capacity of a circuit breaker depends on its rating, which is determined by the maximum short-circuit current that it can safely interrupt.
  • In general, circuit breakers have higher rupturing capacities than HRC fuses because circuit breakers can interrupt higher fault currents and are more commonly used in high voltage systems.
  • HRC fuses are typically used in low and medium voltage systems where the fault currents are lower.
