Eaton Bussmann HRC Offset Tag Fuses - BS88 British Standard Fuses

Eaton Bussmann's offset tag fuses (or offset bolted tag fuses) are essentially a cylindrical fuse that is fitted with offset 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 as an overcurrent or short circuit - they are a safety and damage measure. Eaton Bussmann's fuses are commonly found within a multitude of industrial and switchgear applications, electrical equipment, wiring systems and circuit breakers. This fuse range is suitable for general purpose use.

Features & Benefits

• The low-temperature rise enables the fuse to be suitable for high-density mounting
• Fuse links, specifically designed for the protection of equipment
• Conforms to industry standards
• Low voltage fuse
• High rupture capacity (HRC)
• Suitable for three-phase applications
• Suitable for type 2 co-ordinated applications as defined in IEC 947-4
• Low power loss, typically 20% lower than the requirements of BS 88

Why use a slotted tag fuse?

A slotted tag fuse is distinguished by the metal slotted 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 within electrical circuits.

Eaton British Standard Fuse, B3, 250A ED250

This general-purpose offset tag fuse from the Eaton range will protect your equipment from electrical short circuits and overcurrent. It's a standard cylindrical fuse equipped with two offset brackets on both ends. These bolted tags are used to link it to a fuse holder, which ensures secure insulation.
For improved electrical safety, this fuse is designed to break the flow of current in the event of a fault. With a high breaking capacity of 80kA, it's ideal for use in heavy-duty equipment and machinery. Its function as a weak link in the circuit makes it an essential part of industrial and electrical setups.

Features & Benefits

• High rupture capacity for consistent performance and improved lifespan
• Low temperature rise makes it suitable for high-density mounting in busy systems
• Low melting point and reduced fuse element to control arcing and improve electrical safety

Do I need to carry out any maintenance on this component?

While it doesn't need any regular maintenance, this fuse is designed to break in the event of a short circuit so it will need to be replaced if that happens.
