High Voltage Fuses
	German DIN Standard For Air & Gas Insulated Switchgears Outdoor Switchgears HV Fuse-links have parallel connected pure silver fuse-elements. The design and method of production of the elements ensures narrow tolerances of time-current characteristics. The fuse elements are wound on a ceramic support and are attached to the silver plated connection caps by means of spot-welding.
	The connection caps are fitted inside the silver plated copper end caps by spot welding. The copper end caps themselves are press-fitted onto the porcelain tube, which is glazed inside and outside. The end caps are furthermore mechanically fixed to the porcelain tube and additionally sealed by a durable elastic sealing medium. This sealing method has been proven over many decades of positive field experience and ensures tightness against ingress of humidity.	Vertical cut
