Bussmann 15600-08-20 fuse panel provides a convenient way to organise and protect electrical circuits by using fuses. It has 8 fuse slots, allowing users to connect multiple electrical components while ensuring overcurrent protection.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. How do I choose the right fuse rating?
A. The fuse rating should be determined by the maximum current expected by the circuit. To avoid unnecessary blowing, it should be slightly higher than the circuit's normal operating current.
Q. Can I replace a blown fuse with a higher-rated fuse?
A. Replacing a blown fuse with a higher-rated one is not recommended. Fuses protect circuits & devices and using a higher-rated fuse may jeopardise safety and cause damage.
Q. Can I increase the safety of my circuit by using multiple fuses?
A. Using multiple fuses can enhance protection to different parts of a circuit. However, proper coordination is necessary to ensure the correct fuses blow in case of a fault.
Q. What is a fuse curve?
A. A fuse curve graphically represents how long a fuse can sustain current above its rating before blowing.
