Bussmann KLM-5 Series Non-Indicating Fast-Acting Ferrule Fuse, 600V
The Bussmann KLM-5 is part of the Eaton Bussmann series KLM fuse line, engineered to deliver dependable overcurrent protection for electrical circuits rated up to 600 Vac and 600 Vdc. This compact 5A fuse features a fast-acting, non-indicating design that responds quickly to fault conditions without providing visual indication of the blown state. Housed in a melamine tube with nickel-plated bronze ferrule end x ferrule end terminals, the KLM-5 delivers a secure, low-resistance connection point for panels, fuse blocks, and holders designed to accept ferrule-style fuses. With a high interrupt rating of 100 kAIC at 600 Vac and 50 kAIC at 600 Vdc, this fuse is built to safely interrupt high fault currents while protecting downstream conductors, components, and equipment from damage.
