BUSSMANN Time Delay Class D - Milk Bottle Fuses

What are bottle fuses?

The bottle fuses are types of fuses with variable-sized ends used in small electrical systems to protect circuits from short circuits and overcurrents. These bottle fuses prevent incorrect insertion of wrong fuses into a circuit.

What is the difference between fusible and non-fusible switches?

Fusible switches are equipped with integrated fuses that offer overcurrent protection for electrical circuits, while non-fusible switches lack built-in fuses and rely on other protective devices, such as circuit breakers or upstream fuses, to provide overcurrent protection in the circuit.

How to maintain Bussmann time delay Class D fuses?

• Ensure the fuse and surrounding components are clean and free from debris.
• Store the fuses in a dry, clean and well-ventilated area.
• Verify that the voltage and current ratings match the circuit requirements.
• Ensure the electrical circuit does not carry a current higher than the fuse's rated capacity.
