Safeguard your domestic appliances from the dangers of overcurrent and short circuits with this Eaton cartridge fuse. Its standard compact dimensions of 10mm (diameter) and 38mm (length) make it handy in setups where space is limited. A breaking capacity of 120kA (kiloamperes) means this general-purpose fuse has a high threshold for a wide range of applications. It's commonly found in appliances such as circuit breakers and electric irons.

• Voltage rating of 500V AC (alternating current) and current rating of 4A for suitability in low-voltage applications
• Copper contact end caps for conductivity and a reliable connection
• Easy clip-on installation saves time and doesn't need tools

You can use Ohm's law to calculate this fuse's rating. Simply divide the power of the connected component (measured in watts) by the voltage of the power supply (measured in volts).

You can test this fuse using a multimeter. Simply put the meter in continuity mode and place its probes on both ends of the fuse. A low resistance reading shows there's continuous current flow and the fuse is functional. If there's a high resistance reading, your fuse has blown.
