The current on the terminal may not exceed 5 A. Use a fuse, that protects against currents
> 5 A. The fuse must meet the following requirements:
• In areas where NEC or CEC applies:
– Suitable for DC (min. 60 V / max. 5 A)
– Breaking current at least 10 kA
– Approval according to ANSI/UL 248-1 or CSA C22.2 No. 248.1
– Classes R, J, L, T or CC
– Suitable for the protection of DC power supply circuits
• In other areas:
– Suitable for DC (min. 60 V / max. 5 A)
– Breaking current at least 10 kA
– Approval in compliance with IEC 60127-1 / EN 601127-1
– Switch off characteristics: B or C for circuit breakers and fuses
– Suitable for the protection of DC power supply circuits
With 24 VDC devices you do not need to fuse the supply cable if you only use power
sources with a limited power source (LPS) or power sources according to NEC Class 2 for
the power supply of the devices.
