Eaton Slotted Tag Fuse - British Standard


Eaton's slotted tag fuse, distinguished by the slotted metal tags that extend off the ends of the fuse. This tag can either enable the fuse to have an offset tag or be centred to the fuse. Predominantly, this type of fuse is used within installations as a "weak link". They are designed to break when a fault occurs, such as an overcurrent or short circuit - they are a safety and damage protection measure. Eaton's fuses are commonly found within a multitude of industrial applications, electrical equipment and wiring systems.

Features & Benefits


• The low-temperature rise enables the fuse to be suitable for high-density mounting applications
• Fuse links, specifically designed for the protection of applications
• Conforms to industry standards
• Low voltage fuse

Eaton Slotted Tag Fuse, 16A, T Speed NIT16


Choose this slotted tag fuse from Eaton for efficient protection against overcurrent and short circuit faults. This strong and reliable fuse cuts off electrical flow by breaking when a fault presents itself. It prevents overheating caused by a sudden surge in current higher than the rated current, which can melt cables or even cause equipment fires. This fuse has a tough ceramic cartridge, which means it can tolerate rises in ambient temperature, so it's suitable for high-density industrial applications.

• Slotted tags let you position the fuse in either an offset or centred position
• T-rated for speed allows short periods of harmless inrush current generated by motors to pass without nuisance blow-outs
• Suitable for systems supplied with up to 500V AC or 250V DC for industrial use

How do I choose the right fuse?


There are certain factors like ambient temperature and permissible inrush currents from motors that should be considered in circuit design and fuse selection. As standard, your fuse should have a slightly higher rating than the equipment it's protecting. So a 10-amp device needs a 13-amp fuse, for example.
