The document discusses underground electric distribution standards regarding system protection and fuse coordination. It provides guidelines for properly coordinating fuse sizes to isolate faults as close to their source as possible while minimizing customer outages. The guidelines include tables dividing fuse coordination into groups for lateral fusing, equipment protection, and coordinating different fuse types. Maintaining proper fuse coordination through adhering to the standards is important for a functioning protection scheme.

SYSTEM PROTECTION I. FUSE COORDINATION I.1. GENERAL I.1.1. The purpose of protective coordination is to provide isolation of a fault as close to the fault as possible so that a minimum of customers will be affected. The workhorse of the JEA protection scheme is the fuse. By following the fuse tables given in this section, the fuse closest to a fault will melt first providing proper coordination and fault isolation. I.1.2. The fuse tables are divided into three major groups: I.1.2.1. GROUP A Lateral Fusing This shows the required fuses for the fusing of laterals and sub-laterals. Tables for overhead and underground laterals behind substation breakers and reclosers are given for each system voltage. I.1.2.2. GROUP B: Equipment Protection Fusing This provides the fuse sizes for the protection of transformers and capacitors. I.1.2.3. GROUP C: Fuse Coordination This has various tables for coordinating one type of fuse link behind another type of fuse link. I.1.3. In order to maintain a properly functioning fuse coordination system, the fuse tables presented in this section must be followed in both system design and maintenance. I.1.4. If an installed fuse will not hold the connected load and a larger fuse is installed, the party installing the larger size fuse shall notify the USC System Analysis Process of (1) the location, (2) the old fuse size, and (3) the new fuse size. I.1.5. If a fuse is replaced with a different size fuse because the required size was not available, the party installing the different size fuse shall notify the Systems Operation Control Center so the proper size fuse can be reinstalled.

II. GROUP A: LATERAL FUSING II.1. GENERAL COMMENTS II.1.1. Overhead Laterals on Private Property: II.1.1.1. Fuse the lateral at the road with the correct size lateral fuse if the lateral meets ANY of the following conditions: II.1.1.1.1. More than one transformer is served. II.1.1.1.2. The lateral is longer than two spans. II.1.1.1.3. The transformer pole cannot be seen from the cutout at the road. II.1.1.1.4. Trees could cause outage problems. II.1.1.2. Fuse the lateral at the road with the correct size transformer fuse if the lateral meets ALL of the following conditions: II.1.1.2.1. Only one transformer is served. II.1.1.2.2. The lateral is two spans or less in length. II.1.1.2.3. The transformer pole can be seen from the cutout at the road. II.1.1.2.4. Trees will not cause any outage problems. II.1.2. Underground Laterals: II.1.2.1. Fuse the lateral at the tap with the correct size lateral fuse if the lateral meets ANY of the following conditions: II.1.2.1.1. The tap occurs in an underground fusing cabinet. II.1.2.1.2. The transformer served is equipped with bay-o-net fuses. II.1.2.1.3. More than one transformer is served. II.1.2.1.4. There are provisions for extending the lateral. II.1.2.2. Fuse the lateral at the tap with the correct size transformer fuse if the lateral meets ALL of the following conditions: II.1.2.2.1. The fused tap consists of overhead cutout(s). II.1.2.2.2. The transformer served is not equipped with bay-o-net fuses. II.1.2.2.3. Only one transformer is served. II.1.2.2.4. The lateral is a radial without provisions for extension. FUSING BEHIND SECTIONALIZERS: Sectionalizers do not have time-current characteristics and therefore do not affect coordination between a fuse and an upstream breaker or recloser. When selecting fuses behind a sectionalizer, the presence of the sectionalizer should be ignored.

III. GROUP A: LATERAL FUSING -- 15.2/26.4KV DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM III.1. NOTES: III.1.1. In the event that the tap off the main line fuse or sublateral fuse does not provide adequate current carrying capacity, notify the USC System Analysis Process. III.1.2. A * denotes single phase hydraulic reclosers taken over as part of Okefenokee takeover and are being temporarily used on JEAs system. For coordination purposes, ignore the existence of these reclosers. III.1.3. TABLE 3: III.1.3.1. The fuse size listed in this table is only for a tap off the main line feeder. The first sublateral fuse (Overhead) will be half or the next smaller standard size that JEA has in stock. For example: If a tap off the main line is a 65T fuse, then the first sublateral fuse will be a 30T, and the second sublateral fuse will be a 15T. See Table 1, Group C, for the first sublateral and second sublateral fuse off a cable pole.
