Mike, The following is from clause 5.1.4 of IEC 1010-1 which is for equipment for measurement, control, and laboratory use. NOTE: IEC 127 is the standard that International fuses are tested against. Apparently you can use letter or color codes.
The letter and color codes of IEC 127 are as follows: Very quick acting: FF, or black Quick acting: F, or red Medium time lag: M, or yellow Time-lag: T, or blue Long time-lag: TT, or grey Kurt Andrews Compliance Engineer Tracewell Systems, Inc. 567 Enterprise Drive Westerville, Ohio 43081 voice: 614.846.6175 toll free: 800.848.4525 fax: 614.846.7791 http://www.tracewellsystems.com/ <http://www.tracewellsystems.com/> -----Original Message----- From: Davis, Mike [SMTP:mike_da...@adc.com] Sent: Thursday, January 25, 2001 11:09 AM To: EMC-PSTC Regulatory E-Mail (E-mail) Subject: Fuse Markings I am in the process of updating markings for power ratings on a product that needs a marking for a FAST blow fuse. Is there a reference out there that shows the letter designations for the various blow open speeds? I looked in the IEC 417 and in UL1950 3rd edition to no avail. The search goes on. Michael S.
