Eaton Series 5 Cartridge Fuse, 5A Current Rating, 240V Voltage - C55
This cartridge fuse provides overcurrent protection for electrical circuits in equipment conforming to British standards. It is designed for low-voltage installations and performs as a sacrificial protective element within control panels and modular assemblies, interrupting fault currents at rated conditions to protect downstream components.
Features and Benefits:
• Rated current 5A offers predictable overcurrent interruption capability
• Operates at 240V supporting common low-voltage systems
• Cylindrical construction ensures straightforward axial mounting
• Complies with RoHS to limit hazardous substance content
• Compact format suits confined installation spaces
• Operates at 240V supporting common low-voltage systems
• Cylindrical construction ensures straightforward axial mounting
• Complies with RoHS to limit hazardous substance content
• Compact format suits confined installation spaces
Applications
• Suitable for protection of automation control circuits
• Ideal for use in industrial electronic modules
• Used with distribution boards in electrical engineering tasks
• Can be used for replacement in mechanical control cabinets

What electrical rating determines where it can be installed?
The device is specified for a 5A continuous current and a nominal system voltage of 240V, defining compatibility with circuits rated at or below those values.
What form factor should I expect when fitting into holders?
It is a small cylindrical fuse with a 6mm diameter and 23mm length designed for standard 6x23mm fuse clips and holders.
How does its physical size influence thermal behaviour?
The 6mm diameter and Compact envelope affect heat dissipation, requiring appropriate ventilation or holder spacing to avoid elevated operating temperatures.
Are there any regulatory material limits relevant to disposal or sourcing?
The component meets RoHS requirements, indicating restricted use of certain hazardous substances during manufacture.
