Answer / k.prakashchandra
Fusing current for a round wire is approximately is equal to
k d^3/2 Amps.d=dia in mm, k=80 for copper, 12.8 for tin and
59 for Al.Fusing factor =minimum fusing current/current
rating of fuse.This value should be more than one and is
usually two.

Answer / karthik_elec
fuse is calculating with fuse factor, for example,
if u want to protect one equipment, that equipment taking 10 amps, if u put 10 amps fuse, that fuse will operate in 14.5 amps 4 hrs continues running, fuse factor is 1.45, fuse operating current = 1.45(fuse factor)*10(fuse rating). that means 14.5A 4hrs continues running. this is from IEC (INTERNATIONAL ELECTRO TECHNICAL COMMISSION)

I have a drawing of a wound rotor induction motor for a crane. This crane motor has 5 forward speeds & 5 reverse speed implemented of course with different amount of resistance for each speed setting selected. What has got me scratching around is the fact that 8 of the 10 speed selections switch in uneven (unbalanced) amounts of resistances on each of the 3 connections to the motor's rotor.Can this be possible? I would have assumed this would produce unbalanced rotor currents and therefore vibration in the motor. I would greatly appreciate anyone's comments on this. Many thanks, Confused.
