Bolted tag fuses are a cylindrical type of fuse fitted with brackets at either end to bolt it onto a fuse holder. Fuses are devices designed for use in circuit protection. They provide a weak link, meaning that they break when a fault such as an overcurrent or short circuit is detected, as the metal strip within them heats up and then melts. This stops the flow of current, preventing the circuit from further damage.
What are bolted tag fuses used for?
Bolted tag fuses can be used in many general industrial applications, such as in different types of electrical equipment and wiring systems used throughout buildings. They are often used in low voltage circuits. They also work well in high-density mounting applications.
Types of bolted tag fuses
Bolted tag fuses mainly vary by their size and current rating, and these factors can differ quite widely. They can also differ by the fuse speed, voltage rating and their tag orientation.
Description:
As the fuse allows for the starting surge
of a motor its full load current must not exceed the lesser of the dual current rating. e.g. 20 M25 must not have a continuous load of greater than 20A. Breaking capacity 80kA ac 40k AdcRated up to 550Vac/ 250Vdc (Type A1) ...
Description:
Eaton Bussmann Series bolted tag fuse is essentially
a fuse that is fitted with brackets, these brackets allow the fuse to be bolted onto a fuse holder. Predominantly this type of fuse is used within installations as a "weak link". They are designed to break when a fault occurs, such ...
Description:
These fuses are designed for : General purpose
use protection (gG type) or motor protection (gM type). This fuse range insures an excellent current limitation for all overloads on a large range of applications. Their size cannot allow exchange by other fuses of higher rating in their range. They are ...
