Medium voltage distribution components

Types EU and EUH

Enclosed fused cutouts

Product features
− − For outdoor use only
− − All live parts enclosed
− − Interrupting capacities:
14 kAIC at 2.6 kV to 8 kAIC at 7.8 kV

Description
The ABB EU and EUH fuse cutouts are enclosed in a porcelain
housing. They are furnished with a flipper latch assembly that
aids in ejecting larger links. All EU and EUH units come with a
NEMA “A” crossarm mounting bracket and a toggle screw that
can make the operation “non-dropout”.

The EU and EUH fuses are totally enclosed cutouts (no live
parts exposed) for the 2.6 to 7.8 kV range where space is tight.
The fuse tubes for the EU and EUH cutouts are a centerless
ground, glass filament wound, unpainted tube with a horn fiber
liner.

Application
ABB type EU and EUH cutouts provide a complete line of Ratings
enclosed porcelain cutouts. Only one box is needed for all EU ratings are normal duty up to 14,000 A single shot. The EUH
voltage ratings. Two doors with fuse tubes and one door with a heavy duty rating is for higher interrupting currents up to
disconnect blade all fit in one box. This flexibility offers a great 20,000 A single shot.
convenience to utilities who wish to increase the rating above
50 A or obtain extra heavy duty interrupting capacity in the Standards and design testing
future. The EU and EUH enclosed cutouts meet or exceed all
applicable requirements of NEMA SG-2-1986 and ANSI
− − Universal application: C37.41.1981 and C37.42-1981 standards.
One cutout rated 100 A fused can be used on any system
voltage from 2.4 kV delta to 13.8 kV three-phase grounded
wye.
− − Industrial application:
EU and EUH cutouts can be used in replacement
applications in close spaces where there are increased safety
needs.
− − Self-contained:
Designed for either dropout or non-dropout operation, EU
and EUH cutouts are field adjustable with a screwdriver.
−− Door interchangeability:
All doors and boxes are mechanically interchangeable.
