C10G16, Eaton 16A Ceramic Cartridge Fuse, 10 x 38mm, Предохранитель

Eaton IEC Cylindrical Fuses

The Eaton range of cartridge fuses is available for domestic electrical applications, from circuit breakers to plugs and sockets. These ceramic fuses are also available with an optional visual indicator.

What material are these made from?

All series of cylindrical fuse links have ceramic bodies and silverplated copper end caps.

Why choose ceramic cartridge fuse?

Ceramic and glass cartridge fuses have similar properties. The capacity of a ceramic cartridge fuse is higher than other fuses, which means that ceramic fuses can be used in circuits that have a higher current rating. They are perfect for protecting against overheating.

What size is it?

Sizes 8 x 32 mm, 10 x 38 mm, 14x51 mm & 22x58 mm in both Class gL-gG and aM are also available with a built-in striker for micro-switch operation and remote indication. Class gL-gG and aM fuse links are intended for industrial applications. All industrial fuse links are available with an operated visible fuse indicator.

What voltage is it?

This range of cylindrical cartridge fuses is available in a wide selection of physical sizes and current ratings for applications where the system voltage rating is 400, 500 and 690 Volts AC.


What is Breaking Capacity?

Breaking capacity is the level of current that the fuse can safely handle without exploding or breaking. The breaking capacity of your fuse should be greater than the fault current of your electronic circuit.

What are cartridge fuses used for?

• For the protection of components and equipment from costly damage used by over-current
• To isolate sub-systems from the main system once a fault has appeared

What is an overcurrent?

It is a setting where a circuit experiences a current that is higher than the normal operating current.

Eaton Ceramic Cartridge Fuse, 10mm Diameter, 16A - C10G16

Use this cartridge fuse from the Eaton range to protect your home appliances from overcurrent and short circuits. It's known as a 'sacrificial device', which means it sacrifices itself by melting to break a circuit's power supply when there's a fault, safeguarding operators and equipment. As a gG-type fuse, it's meant for general-purpose wire protection. A ceramic body gives it a high thermal capacity, making it useful in circuits prone to overheating. You'll find fuses like this commonly used in changeover switches, distribution boxes and circuit breakers.

Features & Benefits

• Voltage rating of 500V AC (alternating current) for use in low-voltage applications
• Light weight of 8.2g for easy handling and minimal strain on your system
• Quick and easy clip-on mounting to a fuse holder for tool-free installation

What factors can affect fuse life?

A number of factors can cause a fuse to break. These include temperature, electrical pulses, continuous voltage drops and inrush currents that exceed the current rating of the fuse or equipment. If you're getting through fuses quickly and you can't find a short circuit, one of these factors may be responsible.
