Protection Fuse for a 4.5 MJ Capacitor Bank Experiments

Abstract

Fusible protection elements have been developed for the 4.5 MJ, Pegasus-II capacitor bank. These fuses are designed to prevent voltage swings of greater than 120% of the maximum capacitor charge voltage--the maximum permitted reversal is the actual charge voltage minus 1.20 times the maximum allowed charge voltage.
