Bussmann GBB-V-10-R – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Bussmann GBB-V fuse fit a standard 1/4 x 1-1/4 inch fuse holder or clip?
Yes. The GBB-V is a .25 inch diameter, 1.25 inch long ceramic cartridge with ferrule ends on both ends, which is the common 1/4 x 1-1/4 inch electronic fuse footprint. It drops into any clip or holder built for that size.
2) Can I use a GBB-V fuse on a 120V or 240V AC circuit, and what about DC?
The GBB-V is rated 250 Vac and 125 Vdc, so it covers 120V and 240V AC branch electronic circuits and DC up to 125 volts. Do not put it on a DC bus above 125 volts.
3) Is the GBB-V interrupting rating high enough for my available fault current?
Interrupting capacity on the GBB-V is 200 AIC at 250 Vac and 10 kAIC at 125 Vac/dc. On a 250 Vac circuit that 200 amp figure is low, so it belongs downstream of other protection in an electronic assembly, not as a service or feeder fuse where available fault current runs into the thousands.
4) What does very fast-acting mean on the GBB-V, and will it nuisance-trip on inrush?
The GBB-V opens in 2 minutes maximum at 150 percent of rated current and 1 second maximum at 250 percent. That speed protects semiconductors and instrumentation, but it leaves little headroom for motor, transformer or capacitor inrush. For loads with a startup surge, use a time-delay fuse instead.
5) What amp ratings does the Bussmann GBB-V ceramic fuse come in?
Five ratings: 1A, 2A, 4A, 9A and 10A, ordered as GBB-V-1-R, GBB-V-2-R, GBB-V-4-R, GBB-V-9-R and GBB-V-10-R. Size the fuse to the circuit's continuous load, not to the holder.
6) Can I tell from looking whether a GBB-V fuse is blown?
No. The GBB-V is a non-indicating fuse with an opaque ceramic body, so there is no window and no blown-fuse indicator pin. Check it with a meter for continuity or pull it and swap in a known-good fuse of the same amp rating.
7) Does the GBB-V come with leads, or is it a plain ferrule cartridge?
It ships as a plain ferrule end by ferrule end cartridge for clip or holder mounting. The series is intended for use with axial leads in copper tinned wire, so if your assembly is solder-in you will need the leaded version or a holder that accepts the ferrule body.
8) Is this fuse suitable for control circuit protection in a panel?
Yes, within its ratings. The GBB-V is built for electronic circuits and is commonly used for control circuit overcurrent protection in panel-mount assemblies and instrumentation, provided the circuit is 250 Vac or 125 Vdc or less and the available fault current is inside the 200 AIC / 10 kAIC interrupting rating.
9) Why a ceramic body fuse instead of glass for electronic circuit protection?
The GBB-V uses a ceramic cartridge with nickel-plated brass endcaps. Ceramic contains the arc energy of a clearing fault better than a glass tube and the plated endcaps resist corrosion in clip contacts over long service. The tradeoff is you cannot see a blown element through the body.
