Bussmann 170L9866 Eaton Series High-Speed Square Body Fuse, 500A Class aR
The Bussmann 170L9866 is an Eaton Bussmann series high-speed square body fuse engineered for semiconductor protection, rated 500A and 1600V AC in utilization category Class aR (accompanied semiconductor protection). Built with a square body design and flush end contacts, this fuse protects sensitive semiconductor devices in demanding industrial power circuits. Its high-speed construction delivers the rapid current-limiting response required for aR-class accompanied semiconductor fuse applications, where it is intended to work alongside a backup overcurrent device rather than provide stand-alone full-range protection.
