Bussmann TPL-BG Eaton Series Current-Limiting Telecommunication Fuse, 175A

Bussmann TPL-BG Eaton Series Current-Limiting Telecommunication Fuse, 175A

The Bussmann TPL-BG is an Eaton Bussmann series TPL current-limiting telecommunication fuse engineered for demanding DC power protection applications in telecom and data infrastructure. Rated 170 Vdc and 175A with a 100 kAIC interrupt rating, this fuse delivers current-limiting protection for DC power systems where reliable, high-speed fault clearing is critical to protecting sensitive downstream equipment. The non-indicating design features a bolted blade end by bolted blade end terminal configuration with silver-plated terminals, providing low-resistance, corrosion-resistant connections built for continuous-duty DC power environments. As part of the widely specified Eaton Bussmann TPL series, this fuse is intended for telecommunication power distribution panels and DC circuit protection where a 175A, 170 Vdc, 100 kAIC current-limiting device is required.

Key Features

• Voltage Rating: 170 Vdc rating suited to telecommunication and industrial DC power distribution systems.
• Amperage Rating: 175A continuous current rating for dependable, sustained circuit protection.
• Interrupt Rating: 100 kAIC interrupting capacity delivers reliable protection in high fault-current DC environments.
• Current-Limiting Design: Current-limiting operation reduces let-through energy during fault conditions, helping protect downstream conductors, bus bars, and connected equipment from damage.
• Bolted Blade Terminals: Bolted blade end by bolted blade end terminal configuration provides a secure, vibration-resistant, low-resistance mechanical connection at both ends of the fuse.
• Silver-Plated Terminals: Silver-plated terminal surfaces minimize contact resistance and resist corrosion, supporting consistent performance over the fuse's service life.
• Non-Indicating: Non-indicating body style suited to standard telecommunication fuse panel installations where visual blown-fuse indication is not required.
