Alarm Schematic NOTES: 1. The Electronic Monitoring Circuit (EMC) is a high input impedance device that will provide alarming for an open-fuse condition. 2. Typical leakage current through the load when the EMC is operational ≤ 2 mA. 3. The resistance, R, must be provided by the end-user to limit the alarm output current to a maximum of 20 mA. The value, R, should be calculated using the system voltage value. If remote alarm functionality is not required, the END-USER CIRCUITRY must still be supplied to provide a resistive path to the return for the local alarm to properly function. 4. The fuse is polarized to maintain proper orientation with the switch housing. The line and load terminals are identified on the switch housing. 5. Electrical integrity of the load must be maintained after fuse has opened in order for the local and remote alarm to properly function. • Look for Telpower® BLUE™ fuses exclusively from Cooper Bussmann. 3-26-03 SB03069 Form No. TPC & TPCDS Page 4 of 7 Data Sheet: 5023 Telpower® DC Power Protection Systems Bussmann® TPC & TPCDS Telpower® Compact Fused Disconnect Switch AmpColor ID™ System AmpColor ID™ Chart included with each box of ten TPC fuses.
