British BS88 Fuse Accessories

Trip indicators

Trip indicators

Bussmann’s trip indicators are available for use in parallel with the main fuse, they can either be attached to the associated fuse or mounted separately in panel mounted fuse clips.

Fuse ratings of 20A and below cannot usually accommodate a trip indicator.

When a trip indicator is attached to the main fuse, an accessory pack featuring a pair of mounting clips and a trip indicator would be required. The clips are snapped on to the fuse end caps and the indicator is pressed into the clips.

Microswitch Adapter – MAI and MBI

Microswitch Adapter

Bussmann offer a microswitch adapter for securing the indicator. The microswitch is provided with double pole, single throw contacts, having both a normally open and a normally closed position. A special material has been employed in the construction of the adapter to provide reliable operation within the range of temperatures associated with standard operating conditions during fuse operation.

MAI – back terminal orientation

MBI – side terminal orientation

 

Current Rating:

AC 50/60Hz resistive load @ 250V RMS = 4A    

AC 50/60Hz resistive load @127V RMS = 6A      

DC resistive load @ 110Vdc = 0.7A DC

DC resistive load @ 30Vdc = 2A DC

Maximum Working Voltage: Contact-to-contact (RMS) = 1000V

Contact-to-contact (RMS) = 1500V

Maximum DC Volts = 110V DC

 

Bussmann IEC & British Standard Fuses

Bussmann’s team of specialist engineers provide a standard range of fuses for low voltage industrial and general purpose applications that meet the requirements of BS 88 and IEC 60269. Bussmann uses advanced fuse technology to offer current ratings up to 400A with compact dimensions whilst retaining standard dimensional and performance requirements.

Bussmann’s fuses are manufactured under quality systems independently assessed to BS 5750 (ISO 9002) and appropriate ratings carry the ASTA 20 endorsement.

The IEC and British Standard fuses are used in a wide range of applications including: used in circuits subject to surge currents, used to protect motor control circuits and industrial circuits and electrical apparatus.
