(fuse can not open during type B events)
For the type A events the 0.5 fuse will open, providing non-operational compliance. The 1.25 & 2.0 will
not open, providing for operational compliance with TIA-968-A type A surge events.
Note:
1. Re-rating depicted in this curve is in addition to the standard re-rating of 25% for
continuous operation.
