Design Considerations
When trying to find the correct shunt rating to specify for a given application, there are four things to take into account:
A) Duty – continuous, intermittent or surge
B) Ambient – elevated temperature or high altitudes
C) Temperature rise – normal or limited
D) Environment – grouped, enclosed, forced air
Or any combination of A through D
Although each of these conditions will be considered separately, any combination of them may exist in a specific case. When this happens it will be necessary to use more than one of the A through D sections to arrive at the correct rating.
