High Rupturing Capacity (HRC) fuse is an electrical safety device designed to protect circuits from overcurrent and short circuits. Unlike standard fuses, HRC fuses can interrupt high fault currents, ensuring reliable protection in high-voltage applications. They contain a ceramic or glass body filled with silica sand and a silver or copper element that melts under excessive current, breaking the circuit. HRC fuses are widely used in industrial settings, power distribution systems, and heavy machinery due to their durability, high breaking capacity, and ability to prevent electrical fires, offering enhanced safety and system reliability.
