In other words, if you apply more than 11A (or whatever the fuse rating is)

apply more than 30kA then there is a risk the fuse blows closed-circuit.
Well. The problem that might occur if the current exceeds 30kA is kind of unspecified.
With all good safely made brands of HRC fuse it means the fuse should stay intact if the peak current is under 30kA, and exceeding 30kA is likely to cause the fuse to explode and potentially damage other parts of the equipment it is a part of.
