2.2 System description

The use of the SmartFuse 250 allows the low-voltage power supply to be safely

disconnected and automatically restored in the event of faults and overload. The

possibility to configure how often and how fast the power network is reconnected and to

be informed about any events increases the reliability and stability of the power supply

for consumers and minimises downtime.

To this end, the SFC250 is inserted into the fuse holder (sizes NH 2 and NH 3; fuse

value ≤250 A) in place of the normal NH fuse link. After successful installation and

configuration the SFC250 behaves similar to a normal fuse element. Unlike a normal

fuse, after being tripped, the SFC250 can switch the fused circuit back on if desired

(after a short wait).

The consumer does not, as is the case for classic fault location using high voltage, have

to be completely disconnected from the power supply network. This is often not even

possible, for example because the residents are not accessible, leading to a risk of

property damage to the household appliances and building wiring. Instead, the pre-

location of detected faults can be carried out under voltage either directly with the

internal location algorithm (optional) or with a reflectometer connected in parallel.

For pinpointing the fault position (with the help of a surge wave receiver or the Fault

Sniffer), the SmartFuse 250 can be switched to pulse mode, in which flash-overs are

continuously provoked at the fault location. Pulse mode can be started and stopped

from remote during pinpointing of the fault using a mobile device (GSM connection) or

the SFC250-RC remote control.

Alternative corrective actions, which require the use of a test van, can be scheduled with

some lead time, because in most cases the SFC250 can maintain the supply of the

fused network section for a certain period.

The SmartFuse 250 combines the following features in one device:

• Intelligent monitoring of the low-voltage network

• Minimised downtimes

• Cable fault location with households connected

• Safe installation in the distribution box

• Intuitive user interface

• Variable control via Touchscreen, Smartphone, Tablet, PC or remote control

• Monitoring of up to three phases with one supply module
