The lithium jump starter is going to be made as small as possible, sufficient to deliver cold cranking amps. Maybe 600A into 8V for a 12V starter? So that might be 1800A into a short. I doubt it is 10's of thousands, but I haven't worked with lithium. If it could do 10's of thousands, I think a smaller cheaper battery would have been used, still able to turn the car engine over. Current limiting design greatly reduces damage to equipment caused by heating and magnetic effects of short circuit currents. At the same time I know from experience that inverters don’t care if you use an external fuse or not and that Gopower is a reputable mfg and their equipment has internal fusing and will protect itself. And I know that the real use of the ‘catastrophic’ fuse is to protect the wiring. My wiring will be simple and short. 2 gauge battery cable. The battery and the inverter will be close together inside the living space. Skoolie. I’m much inclined to use a 300A MRBF fuse. That might clip my surge limit but I don’t expect to use that much power anyway. Alternatively Blue Sea makes a 400A ANL. That wouldn’t clip my surge and would still protect my wiring. Remember an ANL IP rated fuse has an AIC of 6000A and a Class-T non IP fuse has a 20,000A interrupt rating.. If you have a gasoline powered vessel, which requires ignition protected devices, consider this when engineering the over current protection for your LFP system.. Current limiting: A current-limiting device is one that reduces the peak let-thru current to a value substantially less than the potential peak current that would occur if the current-limiting device were not used.

Circuits having relatively low levels of available short circuit current, Industrial and commercial applications having frequent outages where a renewable type fuse is desired

Product Comparision

For motor and general purpose circuits where space is not critical, we recommend POWR-PRO™ JTD_ID Indicator series, LLNRK/LLSRK series, or FLSR_ID Indicator series. Please refer to NEC code Article 240 Overcurrent Protection when sizing the fuses for your application. One of the most important aspects of electrical wiring of photovoltaic systems is fusing. Fuses provide integral protection against overcurrents that could otherwise damage your valuable PV equipment. Furthermore, using an incorrect fuse can be extremely hazardous!

The only unsafe failures we had were off-brand el-cheapo car stereo type ANL fuses. As can be seen here the windows literally exploded out of the fuse when it tripped. I did not have a single unsafe failure of a Cooper Bussmann/Blue Sea Ignition Protected ANL fuse but I only blew about 10 of them. I suppose if you blew 100 you may have an unsafe failure on an LFP bank.. This bank can easily throw 20,000A or more of current into a dead short and can damage and literally blow windows out of ANL fuses. I had this happen during the testing of some ANL fuses sent to me by a DIY LFP guy from Cruisers Forum, Thanks Bob E.. Class-T fuses are fully metal encased and are a very safe fuse. When sizing the fuse, the most common calculation method is to multiply the continuous load/feed current of a branch by 1.25, and use the closest rated fuse that is greater than your result. However, there are exceptions to this calculation method. NOTE: Class T fuses do not have an ignition protection rating. As near as I can tell, from speaking with Blue Sea Systems, as well as Cooper Bussmann, they have not been specifically tested for this. This only means that they’ve not been tested, not that they would necessarily be unsafe.Can you point to this standard? I have been trying to look into this recently, but the latest publicly available version of the ABYC E-11 is 2008 when LFP was in its infancy. They do not differentiate OCP based on battery type, only on battery bank size.
