Bussmann BBS-2 Series Fast-Acting Midget Fuse, 2 A, 600 V

The Bussmann BBS-2 Series Fast-Acting Midget Fuse from Eaton Bussmann is engineered to deliver dependable overcurrent protection in compact, space-saving Midget fuse dimensions. This fast-acting fuse is rated 2 A at 600 V and carries a 10 kAIC interrupt rating at 600 Vac, giving it the short-circuit current handling capability needed for demanding industrial, commercial, and OEM control applications. The BBS-2 features a non-indicating, Standard-type design with ferrule end x ferrule end termination for straightforward installation into compatible ferrule-style fuse blocks and holders. Nickel-plated brass endcaps provide a corrosion-resistant, low-resistance electrical contact surface, helping ensure consistent circuit protection performance over the life of the fuse.

Key Features

  • Amperage Rating: 2 A fast-acting response for reliable overcurrent protection.
  • Voltage Rating: 600 V rating supports use in higher-voltage circuit protection applications.
  • Interrupt Rating: 10 kAIC at 600 Vac for dependable short-circuit interrupting capability.
  • Response Type: Fast-acting (fast blow) operation for quick clearing of overcurrent faults.
  • Indication: Non-indicating design (does not provide blown-fuse visual indication).
  • Fuse Style: Standard-type Midget fuse construction in a compact form factor.
  • Termination: Ferrule end x ferrule end configuration for compatibility with standard ferrule-style fuse holders and blocks.
  • Endcap Finish: Nickel-plated brass endcaps for durable, corrosion-resistant electrical contact.

Bussmann BBS-2 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a Bussmann BBS-2 fit a standard midget fuse holder?
The BBS-2 is a midget-style fuse with ferrule end x ferrule end termination, so it drops into ferrule-style midget fuse blocks and holders. There are no blade or bolt tabs to accommodate, just the two endcaps clipping into the holder's spring clips.
2) Can I use a 600V fuse like the BBS-2 on a 240V or 480V control circuit?
Yes. The 600 V rating is a maximum, so the BBS-2 can be applied on any circuit at or below 600 V, including 120, 240 and 480 V control and power circuits. What you cannot do is go the other way and put a lower-voltage fuse on a 600 V circuit.
3) Is the BBS-2 fast-acting or time-delay, and does that matter for a motor load?
Fast-acting, sometimes called fast-blow. It clears overcurrents quickly, which suits control circuits, instrumentation, semiconductor and resistive loads. For a motor or transformer with a high inrush, a fast-acting 2 A fuse will likely open on startup; those loads want a time-delay midget fuse instead.
4) Does the BBS-2 show when it has blown?
No. It is a non-indicating, standard-type fuse, so there is no pop-up pin or window to tell you it has opened. You will need a meter or a fuse holder with blown-fuse indication to confirm the fuse rather than the load. On panels where fast troubleshooting matters, buyers often spec an indicating holder for that reason.
5) What part number do I order for a 2 amp 600 volt Bussmann midget fuse?
Order Bussmann part number BBS-2. The BBS designation is the fast-acting midget series, and the trailing number is the amp rating, so BBS-2 is the 2 A, 600 V version.
6) Is the BBS-2 suitable for a machine control panel an OEM is building?
That is one of its main uses. The combination of a compact midget body, 600 V rating and 10 kAIC interrupting capacity covers control panels, panelboards, distribution gear and OEM machine protection. The 2 A rating is sized for control transformers' secondary circuits, instrumentation and small electronic loads rather than motor branch circuits.
7) Why does the BBS-2 use nickel-plated brass endcaps instead of plain tin?
The nickel plating over brass gives a corrosion-resistant, low-resistance contact face at the fuse clip. That matters in humid plants, washdown areas and outdoor enclosures, where a tarnished endcap raises contact resistance, runs hot and causes nuisance openings.
