An additional 25-ampere fuse on the total load acts as an extra safeguard

Integrating a 25 ampere fuse from E-T-A Elektrotechnische Apparate GmbH into the total load of a 1-phase 32 ampere intelligent energy-measuring Power Distribution Unit (PDU), such as the one shown here, equipped with 18 x C13 and 2 x C19 lockable connections, and where each group is protected by 16 ampere ETA thermal fuses, offers numerous compelling advantages and considerations:

1. Overload protection: The additional 25 ampere fuse on the total load serves as an extra safeguard, preventing the PDU from exceeding its rated capacity. This protects against overload and minimises the risk of damage to connected devices.
2. Flexibility: Incorporating a 25 ampere fuse adds flexibility to the use of the PDU. This is valuable when connecting various devices with diverse power requirements.
3. Redundancy: The additional fuse acts as a form of redundancy. If one of the groups experiences an overload, the extra 25 ampere fuse serves as backup protection.

However, it is crucial to approach the installation of an additional fuse with utmost care and consider the total load and power requirements of the connected devices. Understanding the specifications of the PDU and the needs of your equipment is paramount. Schleifenbauer has you covered.
