10 5 Application Note 3148 Effective August 2018 Quik-Spec coordination Panelboard (QSCP) Application coordination made easyQSCP and upstream fusesThe QSCP provides the fusible solution for branch panelboard applications making it simple and cost Effective to selectively coordinate the branch circuits with upstream Bussmann fuses or upstream Eaton circuit breakers . This innovative branch circuit panelboard uses CUBEFuse fuses (1 to 100 A) for the branch circuit protective devices . The main fusible disconnect options are Class J Low-Peak 200 A or 400 A LPJ-_SP fuses or, the 30 A, 60 A or 100 A Compact Circuit Protector (CCP) that also utilizes the CUBEFuse . The time-delay CUBEFuse and Low-Peak LPJ-_SP fuses are easy to selectively coordinate with each other . CUBE fuses were tested to selectively coordinate with Eaton circuit breakers used in upstream power distribution panelboards and switchboards.
