Notes
(1)
The continuous current rating applies only to values equal to or less than the crossover value. The continuous power rating applies only to
values equal to or higher than the crossover value.
• Be aware that the inherent compromise involved between resistive and fusing functions sometimes makes certain exact combinations
unattainable. However, in nearly all cases, this does not prevent the production of a functional, reliable fuse resistor thoroughly capable of
meeting application requirements.
