I have a set of fuses I need to test the characteristics to see if they will be implemented in one of my design boards that routes power. The fuses need to be rated for 35A, but need to support in-rush current. They will be used on a 24V rail powersupply. I'm slightly nervous about how to set up the experiment, because according to my calculations, I'd need a 0.6Ω load capable of disappating over 900W .
If you had to test a fuse to ensure correct operation, how would you set up a load capable of supporting the high power levels?
