Cylindrical fuse 10 x 38 mm 20A GG 500V AC CYLINDRICAL FUSE 10 x 38 20A GG 500V AC C10G20

Safety and electrical installation protection

Cylindrical insert 10 x 38 mm with a rated current of 20A, with gG characteristic and 500V AC voltage, is an element used to protect electrical circuits against overload and short circuit. It is a key component in ensuring the safe and reliable operation of installations, both in domestic and industrial applications. Manufactured by Eaton, a renowned manufacturer in the electrical industry, guarantees high quality and compliance with applicable standards.

Characteristics and application

Fuse links of this type are widely used in protecting various types of devices and electrical circuits. The gG characteristic (also denoted as aM) indicates versatility – it is suitable for protecting both cables and the devices themselves. The short-circuit breaking capacity at 120 kA ensures an effective response in the event of serious disturbances in the current flow. The construction with a steatite body and silver-plated copper contacts provides good conductivity and corrosion resistance. It is worth noting the absence of cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb), which makes it more environmentally friendly.

Key features and benefits

• Versatility: The gG characteristic allows for use in a wide range of applications – from securing cabling to protecting sensitive electronics.
• High breaking capacity: 120 kA guarantees effective circuit interruption in the event of a short circuit, minimizing the risk of damage.
• Durability and reliability: The use of high-quality materials (steatite, silver-plated copper) ensures long-lasting and trouble-free operation.
• Environmental safety: The absence of harmful substances (Cd, Pb) makes it a more ecological alternative.
• Standard size: Dimensions 10x38 mm ensure compatibility with most standard fuse holders.
• Wide voltage range: Possibility of use in AC circuits with a voltage of up to 500V.
• Clear time-current characteristic: allows precise adaptation to specific application needs.
• Low power loss: thanks to the construction minimizing internal resistance (2W).

The use of this type of fuse links translates into increased safety of using the electrical installation and reduced risk of failures and downtime. For installers, this means easy installation and confidence in operation, and for end users – peace of mind related to the protection of their property and health.
