Recycling potential for the low voltage high breaking capacity fuse links used by P.P.C. of Greece

Low voltage (LV) high-breaking-capacity fuse links (NH) are used in LV installations protecting mainly the LV electricity distribution networks and in a significant amount of LV electrical equipment used in industrial, commercial and residential facilities and infrastructures. The WEEE Directive (2002/96/EC) for 'Waste of electrical and electronic equipment†is the main related legislation and even though it concerns electrical and electronic equipment, it does not include electric fuses.

Although, the fuselinks consist of recyclable materials, only small scale actions have been implemented for their recycling around Europe. This work investigates the possibilities for recycling of NH fuses used by the Public Power Corporation (PPC) of Greece, which is the major consumer. According to the obtained results, fuse recycling by PPC could contribute to the effort for minimize the impacts for the environment through materials recovery and reduction of the wastes’ volume disposed of in landfills.
