BK/GDA-5A Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The BK/GDA-5A from Eaton is a fast-acting ceramic cartridge fuse designed for overcurrent protection. It is rated for 5A at 250VAC and provides a breaking capacity of 1.5kA. The fuse has a melting I²t of 25 A²s, indicating its thermal energy response during a fault.

 

This fuse uses the standard 5mm x 20mm cartridge size, with a ceramic body measuring 0.205 inches in diameter and 0.787 inches in length. It requires a holder for installation, making it suitable for use in fuse blocks or panel-mounted holders. The ceramic construction helps withstand high fault currents and provides robust arc quenching.

 

The fast-blow response time ensures rapid interruption when current exceeds the rated value, making it appropriate for protecting sensitive electronic components. The fuse carries approvals from CCC, CSA, IMQ, SEMKO, and UL, and is RoHS3 compliant. It has an MSL of 1, indicating unlimited floor life before soldering.
