Bussmann C10G16 Cylindrical Fuse, 500V 16A Class gL/gG

The Bussmann C10G16 is a low voltage cylindrical fuse from the Eaton Bussmann series, rated 500V and 16A with a 120 kAIC interrupt rating for dependable overcurrent protection in industrial and commercial electrical systems. Built to Class C gL/gG specifications, this cylindrical fuse features a ceramic body, ferrule end x ferrule end termination, and silver-plated construction for consistent electrical performance. It is designed for use in compatible cylindrical fuse holders, including CHM-style holders, making it a reliable choice for circuit protection applications requiring precise, code-compliant overcurrent devices.

Key Features

  • Voltage & Current Rating: Rated 500V and 16A, suited for general-purpose overcurrent protection in low voltage electrical circuits.
  • High Interrupt Rating: A 120 kAIC interrupt rating provides robust protection against high fault currents in demanding electrical systems.
  • Class gL/gG Fuse Link: Class C gL/gG general-purpose fuse link construction delivers full-range protection for cable and general application circuits.
  • Cylindrical Form Factor: A compact cylindrical fuse body is designed for use in standard cylindrical fuse holders and fuse blocks.
  • Ferrule End Termination: A ferrule end x ferrule end configuration ensures a secure, low-resistance connection in compatible holders such as the CHM series.
  • Ceramic Body: Ceramic body construction provides excellent thermal stability and reliable arc containment during fuse operation.
  • Silver-Plated Construction: Silver-plated components support low contact resistance and consistent long-term electrical performance.

Technical Specifications

  • Refer to manufacturer documentation for complete technical specifications.

Typical Applications

Bussmann C10G8 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What amp ratings does the Bussmann C10G 10x38mm cylindrical fuse come in?
Two ratings are offered: 8A as the C10G8 and 16A as the C10G16. Both are 10x38mm cylindrical bodies with ferrule end x ferrule end termination, so they drop into the same holder.
2) Will the C10G16 fit a CHM series fuse holder?
Yes. The C10G16 is built for standard cylindrical fuse holders and the description names CHM-style holders specifically. The ferrule end x ferrule end configuration is what makes that connection.
3) What voltage and interrupting rating does the Bussmann C10G16 carry?
Rated 500V with a 120 kAIC interrupting rating, which is what lets it be applied on low voltage industrial and commercial distribution where available fault current is high.
4) What does the gL/gG class on this Bussmann cylindrical fuse actually mean for my circuit?
gL/gG is a general purpose, full range fuse link. It clears both overloads and short circuits, which is why it's used for cable and general circuit protection rather than as a motor circuit or semiconductor fuse. The C10G is a Class C gL/gG design.
5) Can I use a 10x38mm gG fuse like the C10G for motor starting circuits?
The C10G is a gL/gG general purpose link, sized for cable and general circuit protection. Motor branch circuits with high inrush are normally protected by a time-delay or aM type fuse instead, so specify accordingly rather than substituting a gG link for that duty.
6) Should I order the 8A or 16A C10G for my panel?
Match the fuse to the circuit conductor and load, not the holder. Both C10G8 and C10G16 share the same 10x38mm body, 500V rating and 120 kAIC interrupting rating, so the only difference is the ampere rating of the link. Ordering by part number: C10G8 for 8A, C10G16 for 16A.
7) Is the C10G a ceramic body fuse or glass?
Ceramic. The body is ceramic for thermal stability and arc containment, with silver-plated components to keep contact resistance low over time. That is the construction you want in a panel that runs warm or sees repeated fault duty.
