$begingroup$ When a fuse is in parallel with a capacitor the capacitor will be shorted until the fuse blows. If a fuse blows you want a circuit to be off and not still connected via a capacitor. Your question makes no sense …
Capacitor current-limiting fuses can be designed to operate in two different ways. The COL fuse uses ribbons with a non-uniform cross section. This configuration allows the fuse to be used to interrupt inductively limited faults. The pressure is generated by the arc contained in the sealed housing.
Over the years, a set of terms has been developed to apply capacitor fuses. The concept of applying fuses should be a simple engineering task; however, fuse operation is a non-linear function. The resistance of fuse elements changes non-linearly as they melt and clear.
The capacitor must be able to absorb this energy with a low probability of case rupture. Fuses are usually applied with some continuous current margin. The margin is typically in the range of 1.3 to 1.65 per unit. This margin is called the fusing factor.
For high voltage capacitor fuses, this is generally defined as 8.3, 15.5 or 23 kV, the distribution system maximum voltages. Other voltage ratings may be available for special applications. When a capacitor fails, the energy stored in its series group of capacitors is available to dump into the combination of the failed capacitor and fuse.
The fuse protecting the capacitor is chosen such that its continuous current capability is equal to or greater than 135% of rated capacitor current for grounded-wye connected racks, and 125% for ungrounded-wye racks. This overrating includes the effects of overvoltage, capacitor tolerance, and harmonics.
When a capacitor fails, the energy stored in its series group of capacitors is available to dump into the combination of the failed capacitor and fuse. The failed capacitor and fuse must be able to absorb or hold off this energy with a low probability of case rupture of the capacitor unit.
