The world’s first finger-safe power fuse system.
Smallest footprint of any class fuse including Class J, CC, T and RK.
Meets Class J time-delay electrical performance requirements.
Available with and without open fuse indication to meet every customer
requirement.
The indicating version features easyID™ open fuse technology for faster
troubleshooting and reduced downtime.
Faster response to damaging faults to help reduce destructive thermal and
magnetic forces.
True dual-element fuse construction with a minimum of 10 seconds timedelay at 500% of rating.
Long time-delay minimizes nuisance circuit openings due to temporary
overloads and transient surges.
High interrupting rating to safely interrupt faults up to 300kA.
No venting of arc or molten metal and gases during opening.
Robust cycling and inrush current withstand.
Low let-through currents under fault conditions.
Provides Type 2 “No Damage” protection for IEC motors starters when
properly sized.
Easy selective coordination with any other Cooper Bussmann® Low-Peak®
Class L, J and RK1 fuse with simple 2:1 amp ration between upstream and
downstream fuses.
