Bussmann 170M-568 Class aR Square Body Fuse, Non-Indicating
The Bussmann 170M-568 is a Class aR square body fuse engineered for dependable overcurrent protection in demanding industrial power distribution systems. Built with a square body US-style construction (-FU/115 without indicator), this fuse carries a voltage rating up to 1250V along with a 690V (IEC) rating and a 100 kAIC interrupt rating for high fault-current withstand capability. The 170M-568 family is available in 250A and 350A amp ratings, letting installers match the correct fuse to the load and protection requirement without changing body style or mounting footprint. Its non-indicating design keeps the fuse body simple and standardized for applications where a blown-fuse indicator is not required, and the unit carries CE Marked compliance for use in qualifying installations.
