BK/ABC-5-R Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The Eaton BK/ABC-5-R is a ceramic cartridge fuse designed for overcurrent protection in a variety of applications. Rated at 5 A with a voltage rating of 250 VAC and 125 VDC, this fast blow fuse provides quick response to overcurrent conditions. It offers a breaking capacity of 200 A at 250 VAC and 10 kA at 125 VDC, making it suitable for both AC and DC circuits. The melting I²t is specified at 32.83 A²s, providing a measure of thermal energy for coordination studies.

 

This fuse features a ceramic body with a 3AB/3AG form factor, measuring 0.250" diameter by 1.250" length (6.35 mm x 31.75 mm). It requires a holder for installation and is not a panel-mount or PCB-mount component. The BK/ABC-5-R is approved by CSA and UL, ensuring compliance with North American safety standards.

 

Applications include power supplies, industrial control circuits, telecommunications equipment, and lighting systems where reliable overcurrent protection is required. The fast blow characteristic makes it appropriate for circuits that are sensitive to extended overcurrent events.
