Bussmann 5960-63 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What size fuse does the Bussmann 5960-63 fuse clip hold?
The 5960-63 clip is built for 0.172 inch diameter fuses. That diameter is the deciding spec: a fuse of any other body diameter will not seat and retain properly in the clip, so match the fuse barrel diameter before ordering.
2) What torque should I use when installing the Bussmann 5960-63 fuse clip?
Tighten to 15.9 lb-in. Under-torquing a fuse clip leaves a high-resistance joint that heats under load; over-torquing can distort the clip and loosen fuse retention. Use a calibrated in-lb driver rather than feel.
3) Can I use this Bussmann fuse clip in an outdoor or washdown enclosure?
It carries a NEMA 4X rating, so it is suited to enclosures where corrosion resistance and washdown protection are required, including outdoor and wet-location equipment cabinets. The enclosure itself still has to be the 4X rated part of the assembly.
4) Will the Bussmann 5960-63 show me when the fuse has blown?
No. It is a non-indicating clip, meaning there is no blown-fuse indicator or pop-out flag built into it. If your maintenance routine depends on a visual blown-fuse indication, you need an indicating fuse or a separate indicating holder, not this clip.
5) What does the 300 kAIC rating on this Bussmann fuse clip mean for my panel?
300 kAIC is the interrupt rating tied to this clip's use in Eaton Bussmann surge protection device assemblies, which is what lets it sit in high available-fault-current service equipment. Confirm the available fault current at your point of installation is at or below that figure.
6) Is this Bussmann part a fuse or just the holder?
It is the clip, not the fuse. The 5960-63 is the fuse-holding component used inside Eaton Bussmann surge protection device assemblies; you order the 0.172 inch diameter fuse separately.
7) What part number do I order for the Bussmann Eaton series SPD fuse clip?
The manufacturer part number is 5960-63, from Bussmann by Eaton. It is a single-configuration item, so there are no finish, size, or indicator options to select.
