RS PRO 40A Slotted Tag Fuse A1 415 V ac, 250V dc, 44.5 mm

Introducing from RS PRO the NIT series slotted tag fuses. These dual-rated fuses are used in motor circuits that require a higher rating and protection when overcurrent or surges are detected. The NIT fuses have a dual current rating and are recognised with the letter ’M’ for continuous current and the operational characteristic rating.

Upon inspection, each fuse is housed within a fuse holder with a tag at either end with mounting through-holes. The RS PRO NIT series offer a voltage rating of 250 V dc, 415 V ac with various current ratings. Installation is quick and easy and complies with the fuse standard IEC 60269-2/BS 88-2.

The main purpose of a fuse is to offer circuit protection by acting as the weakest link in the system. It is designed to fail when overloads occur. It’s safer and cheaper to replace a solitary fuse than to replace electrical components within the system.
