Externally fused capacitors utilize modern all-film element technology. The individual can is constructed from series groups of parallel capacitor elements which are designed to be operated with a common external fuse (refer to Figure 1b).
Modern-day capacitors exhibit relatively low losses overall, and with proper design, the additional losses are not a major concern. That said, the additional heat generated by internal fuses may prevent use in certain situations and will shorten the capacitor unit life (compared to unfused units).
But, typically, externally fused capacitor banks have higher failure voltages and currents than fuseless or internally fused banks because an external fuse blowing causes the loss of an entire unit. As a point of reference, fuseless capacitor banks have a unit construction, as shown in Fig. 1 . Fig. 1. Fuseless unit in a wye-connected bank
In this design, a fuse is simply a piece of wire specifically selected based on the internal design of the unit to melt under fault conditions. Because each element is protected with a fuse inside the capacitor unit, the I2R loss is much higher (e.g. 50% higher) compared to unfused unit construction.
