Eaton Cartridge Fuse, 500V AC Voltage, 10kA Breaking Capacity FNQ-10
Use this cartridge fuse from Eaton to protect your equipment from short circuits and current overload. When a harmful current is detected, its internal resistor melts, breaking the circuit and stopping the current from reaching the connected device. Thanks to its T speed rating, this fuse is slow-acting, which means it can accommodate mild electrical surges without blowing, making it suitable for high-voltage systems. For durability, its fibreglass body is resistant to hard impacts. You'll typically find components like this in domestic appliances including air conditioners.
Features & Benefits
• Standard dimensions of 38 (length) x 10mm (diameter) for versatile use • Orange label for easy colour-coding in busy setups • Nickel-plated brass endcaps offer resistance to corrosion for added durability
What's meant by the breaking capacity of a fuse?
The breaking capacity is the maximum fault current a fuse can withstand before blowing. This unit has a breaking capacity of 10kA, so it's safe to use in demanding operations.
What material is this cartridge fuse made from?
The housing of this fuse is made of fibreglass for strength and durability.
