EATON BUSSMANN Fast Acting Fuse, 5mm x 20mm, 2.5A, 10 Pack

The EATON BUSSMANN Fast Acting Fuse provides essential circuit protection in a reliable 5mm x 20mm cartridge format. This fuse features a fast-acting blow characteristic, designed to rupture quickly in the event of an overcurrent or short circuit. Its primary function is to safeguard sensitive electronic components and wiring by interrupting the flow of electricity before damage can occur, preventing equipment failure and potential fire hazards.

Supplied as a pack of ten, these fuses offer excellent value for maintenance, repair, and installation tasks. Each fuse is rated for 250 volts AC and can safely interrupt a fault current of up to 1.5kA (1500 amperes). The compact 5mm x 20mm glass body allows for easy inspection of the internal fuse element, making it simple to verify if a fuse has blown.

Applications and Use

These fuses are commonly utilised in a wide variety of low-voltage AC applications. They are ideal for use in power supplies, control transformers, small appliances, lighting circuits, and various types of electronic instrumentation. Their fast-acting response makes them particularly suitable for protecting semiconductor devices and other components that cannot tolerate sustained overloads.

Key Features

• Fast-Acting Protection: Responds rapidly to overcurrent conditions.
• High Breaking Capacity: Can safely interrupt currents up to 1.5kA.
• Clear Glass Body: Allows for visual inspection of the fuse element.
• Standard Metric Size: The 5mm x 20mm dimensions are a common international standard.
• Convenient 10-Pack: Provides spares for immediate replacement needs.

Installing and replacing these fuses is straightforward. Always ensure the equipment is disconnected from the power source before handling. Select a fuse holder designed for the 5mm x 20mm size and ensure it matches the required voltage and current ratings of your circu
