High Ampere Overload Bay-O-Net Fuse Link
The Cooper Power Systems High Ampere Overload Bay-O-Net fuse link is used in the Cooper Power Systems silver-plated Bay-O-Net assemblies (see Section 240-40) to protect distribution apparatus from damaging currents and to protect distribution systems from failed apparatus. High ampere overload links provide better heat dissipation when used at higher load current levels. These lower operating temperatures will extend Bay-O-Net applications to larger kVA units.

Features
- High current overload Bay-O-Net fuses were designed to allow the fusing of larger kVA distribution transformers, both single-phase and three-phase.
- Its ideal use is in a two-fuse protection scheme with a current-limiting backup fuse. In this arrangement, secondary faults and overload currents are cleared by the Bay-O-Net fuse, and high level faults are cleared by the current-limiting fuse.
- The two fuses are connected in series and are coordinated so that the current-limiting fuse operates only upon internal transformer failure.
- If the Bay-O-Net will not be used in series with a current-limiting fuse, an isolation link is required.
- The High Ampere Overload Bay-ONet fuse is an integrated fuse link and cartridge design specially engineered to reduce operation temperatures.
- The Bay-O-Net design allows the integral (link) cartridge to be easily field replaceable.
- High Ampere Overload Links should only be used in silver-plated Flapper Bay-O-Net assemblies in order to ensure the intended operating characteristics.
