Eaton 32A British Standard Fuse, F1, 550V ac

Cooper Bussman's bolted tag fuse is essentially a fuse that is fitted with 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. Cooper Bussman's fuses are commonly found within a multitude of industrial applications, electrical equipment and wiring systems.

• 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
• 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 BS88

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.

This British standard low-voltage fuse from Eaton is a bolted tag fuse. This means it's fitted with brackets so you can bolt it onto a fuse holder. Its low temperature rise makes it suitable for high-density mounting and it can be used to protect three-phase applications and type-2 coordinated applications as defined in the international standard IEC 947-4. This fuse also features low power loss, typically 20% lower than the requirements of British Standard BS88.

• British standard F1 fuse size of 13.8 mm (body diameter) x 34.6 (body height) x 58.5 mm (overall length)
• Voltage rating of 550 V AC for high-voltage applications
• gG operating class defines it as a general-purpose fuse
• High rupture capacity (HRC) means the fuse body can withstand inrush currents of 10 kA at 300 V DC or 30 kA at 600 V AC

The offset tags on either end of this slotted tag fuse let you bolt it into a system without needing a fuse holder.

Fuses classed as gC fuses are intended for general-purpose use. They're commonly found in industrial and switchgear applications and circuit breakers.
