Z-1061 Main Service Conductor Cable Limiters ( 240, 450-6): a) Select by cable size and mounting terminal configurations Main Service Circuit Fuses Mixed Loads: a) Size fuses same as item Transformer Circuit Fuses ( 450-3b, 240-3, 240-21, 384-16d, 430-72b Ex. 3, 4 & (c) as required):* a) PRIMARY FUSES: Size fuses not over 125%. As exceptions exist, refer to the appropriate paragraphs. Recommended fuses: LESRK, ECSR, JDL, LCL+.* b) SECONDARY FUSES (Sum of following): 125% of the continuous load plus 100% of non-continuous load. fuse size not to exceed 125% of transformer secondary rated amps.

current at their point-of-application as indicated by Figure 2. Circuits where fuses and breakers are installed may be capable of thousands of amperes of short circuit current flow during a short circuit condition. When fuses or breakers are installed where the value of short circuit current flow may exceed the interrupting rating
