RS PRO 5A T Glass Cartridge Fuse, 5 x 20mm

Use this glass cartridge fuse from RS PRO to protect your internal appliances and electrical circuits from sudden power surges. In the event of overcurrent, this small component will blow and break the circuit, thereby eliminating the risk of fire.


As this cartridge is made of glass, you can easily tell just by looking inside whether the fuse has blown. It's a T-rated fuse, meaning it can handle higher currents for short periods without fusing. It has a low breaking capacity (LBC) that makes it suitable for use in low-voltage networks.


This cartridge has a wide operating temperature range -55ºC to +125ºC, so you can use it in a variety of applications. Fuses such as this one are found in both residential and commercial environments, from private homes to factories and offices. They're commonly used for applications such as refrigerator pumps, cars and air-conditioning systems.
