Fuses are more reliable, those breakers trip a little bit sooner every time they let go and sometimes its a replacement nightmare to get at them. I had lots of curse words for a Thunderbolt II a few

I thought that was how we were supposed to find the fault. Increase the fuse size step by step until the problem either blows up of catches fire. Of course it may take something expensive along with

A fuse provides NO current limiting until it blows; and a breaker provides NO current limiting until it breaks. A lot of damage can be done in those first few milliseconds, which is why the fuse/brea

The usual technique is to apply a crowbar short across the valuable tube, while other, slower, circuits are shutting down the rest of the power supply. The voltage is a bit high for a thyristor crowb

Agreed, The first instant in time you have the full output of Bonnyville Dam on the fault. But then the impedance of the system kicks in and limits it. But still depending on the size of the utility
