Bussmann KWN-R Series LIMITRON Fast-Acting Class RK1 Fuse, Non-Indicating

The Bussmann KWN-R Series from Eaton Bussmann is a LIMITRON fast-acting fuse line built to Class RK1 specifications, offered in a non-indicating, standard configuration for general-purpose overcurrent protection. This series is available in amp ratings from 1A to 60A, spanning 1A, 3A, 6A, 10A, 15A, 20A, 25A, 30A, 40A, 50A, and 60A options so electricians and facility teams can match the correct fuse to a given branch-circuit or equipment protection requirement. As a Class RK1 fuse, the KWN-R Series is engineered for fast-acting response and current-limiting performance, helping protect conductors, equipment, and connected loads in commercial and industrial electrical systems. The standard, non-indicating design keeps the fuse straightforward to specify and stock across a facility's panelboards and fuse holders.

Key Features

  • Amp Rating Range: Available across the full KWN-R Series lineup from 1A to 60A (1A, 3A, 6A, 10A, 15A, 20A, 25A, 30A, 40A, 50A, 60A) to match a wide range of circuit load requirements.
  • Fast-Acting Response: LIMITRON fast-acting design provides quick fault clearing for reliable overcurrent protection in general-purpose circuits.
  • Class RK1 Fuse: Meets Class RK1 fuse specifications, delivering current-limiting performance and high interrupting capacity for demanding electrical systems.
  • Non-Indicating Type: Standard non-indicating construction suited to general-purpose fuse holder and panelboard applications where blown-fuse indication is not required.
  • Standard Configuration: Standard type fuse construction suited for common branch-circuit and equipment protection uses across commercial and industrial facilities.
  • Eaton Bussmann Series: Part of the established Bussmann KWN-R series, engineered by Eaton Bussmann for dependable, code-oriented electrical system protection.
  • Broad Rating Selection: Eleven amp rating options in one series simplify stocking and specification across multiple circuit sizes within a single facility or project.

Bussmann KWN-R-10 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What amp ratings does the Bussmann KWN-R LIMITRON fuse come in?
The KWN-R Series runs 1A through 60A, in eleven steps: 1, 3, 6, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50 and 60 amps. Part numbers follow the rating directly, so a 30 amp fuse is KWN-R-30 and a 60 amp is KWN-R-60. That spread lets a facility stock one series across most branch-circuit and equipment sizes instead of mixing families.
2) Can a Class RK1 fuse like the KWN-R go into a fuse block that currently holds Class RK5 or Class H fuses?
Yes. Class R fuses share rejection-style Class R dimensions, so an RK1 such as the KWN-R drops into any Class R block of the same amp and voltage rating, including one holding RK5. It will also fit a non-rejecting Class H clip of the same case size, and swapping up to RK1 gives you a faster-acting, current-limiting element. What you cannot do is put an RK5 or Class H fuse into a Class R rejection block.
3) Is the KWN-R a fast-acting or time-delay fuse, and will it hold a motor starting inrush?
Fast-acting. The KWN-R is a LIMITRON fast-acting Class RK1, built to clear faults quickly rather than ride through inrush. For a motor circuit where you are sizing at or near full-load amps, a fast-acting fuse will nuisance-open on starting current. Use a fast-acting RK1 where the load is non-inductive or where it backs up a separate overload device, and choose a dual-element time-delay Class RK1 when the fuse itself has to tolerate motor start.
4) What does non-indicating mean on the KWN-R fuse, and does it matter for troubleshooting?
Non-indicating means there is no pop-up pin or window to show the fuse has opened. You find the blown one by testing continuity or voltage across the holder. For panelboards and enclosed disconnects where you meter anyway, that is fine. If your maintenance team wants to spot an open fuse visually behind a door or on a remote skid, specify an indicating version instead.
5) Why choose Class RK1 over Class RK5 for equipment protection?
RK1 lets through less energy on a fault than RK5 at the same amp rating, so it protects downstream conductors and equipment more tightly. That is the reason a drawing calling for current-limiting protection usually specifies RK1. The KWN-R is a Class RK1 built to that standard, in ratings from 1A to 60A. If the spec only calls for general-purpose protection and no let-through limit, RK5 is the looser and cheaper route.
6) How do I order the right KWN-R fuse, and how many do I need?
The only thing to specify is the amp rating; the series is otherwise fixed as fast-acting, non-indicating, standard configuration. Order by the rating suffix, for example KWN-R-15 for 15 amps or KWN-R-1 for 1 amp. Buy one per ungrounded conductor: three for a three-phase disconnect, two for a two-pole circuit. Most shops carry a spare set of each rating they run.
7) I need a replacement for a blown KWN-R in an industrial panel. Is a like-for-like swap enough?
Match the amp rating and you are replacing like for like, since the KWN-R Series is a single construction across all eleven ratings. Replace all fuses in the set, not just the open one, so the remaining poles do not carry aged elements. And find the fault first: a fast-acting current-limiting fuse opens on a short or a genuine overload, so a repeat opening is a circuit problem, not a fuse problem.
