Bussmann NO.216-R Fuse Reducer 30/60-Amp 250/600V
The Bussmann NO.216-R Fuse Reducer is engineered to adapt a larger fuseholder for use with a smaller fuse, reducing a 100A fuse clip down to accept a 60A fuse without requiring a full fuseholder replacement. This reducer carries a dual electrical rating of 30/60-Amp at 250/600 Volt, matching the dual-rating convention used across this style of Bussmann fuse reducer. It is designed for use in panelboards, switchboards, and fused disconnect equipment where downsized overcurrent protection is required in the field. Electricians and maintenance crews rely on fuse reducers like the NO.216-R to correctly match fuse size to load requirements while preserving the integrity of the existing fuseholder assembly.
Key Features
- Fuse Clip Reduction: Reduces a 100A fuseholder to accept a 60A fuse, allowing installation of a smaller fuse in an existing larger fuseholder without hardware replacement.
- Dual Amp Rating: Rated 30/60-Amp, providing the dual current rating used across this Bussmann fuse reducer model.
- Dual Voltage Rating: Rated 250/600 Volt, supporting use across common low-voltage and medium-voltage distribution classes.
