Figure 211: Replacement of a faulty capacitor unit within SCB
There are four types of the capacitor unit fusing designs which are used for
construction of SCBs:
Externally
fused
where an individual fuse, externally mounted, protects each capacitor unit.
Internally fused where each capacitor element is fused inside the capacitor unit
Fuseless where SCB is built from series connections of the individual capacitor units (that is,
strings) and without any fuses
Unfused where, in contrary to the fuseless configuration, a series or parallel connection of the
capacitor units is used to form SCB, still without any fuses
