Bussmann TPL-CV Eaton Series TPL Telecommunication Fuse, 500A, 170 Vdc

Bussmann TPL-CV Eaton Series TPL Telecommunication Fuse, 500A, 170 Vdc

The Bussmann TPL-CV is an Eaton Bussmann series TPL telecommunication fuse engineered for current-limiting overcurrent protection in DC telecom power systems. Rated 170 Vdc, 500A, with a 100 kAIC interrupting rating, this non-indicating fuse uses a bolted blade end x bolted blade end terminal configuration with silver-plated terminals for a dependable, low-resistance connection. It is built for professionals who need reliable, high-fault-current protection in demanding telecommunication power distribution applications, including central office and data center DC power plants where fast, current-limiting response to a fault condition helps safeguard connected rectifiers, batteries, and distribution equipment. As part of the recognized Eaton Bussmann series TPL family, the TPL-CV is intended for specifiers and electricians who require a fuse matched precisely to 170 Vdc, 500A telecommunication power protection duty.

Key Features

• Current-Limiting Design: The TPL-CV is a current-limiting fuse that reduces peak let-through current and energy during a fault, helping protect downstream telecommunication power equipment.
• Electrical Rating: Rated 170 Vdc, 500A, with a 100 kAIC interrupting rating for use in high-fault-current DC telecommunication power systems.
• Bolted Blade Terminals: Bolted blade end x bolted blade end terminal configuration provides a secure, low-resistance mechanical and electrical connection.
• Silver-Plated Terminals: Silver-plated terminal construction improves conductivity and helps resist corrosion at the connection points.
• Non-Indicating: Non-indicating construction, designed for straightforward current-limiting overcurrent protection without a blown-fuse indicator.
• Eaton Bussmann Series TPL: Part of the Eaton Bussmann series TPL telecommunication fuse family, purpose-built for telecom power protection duty.
• DC Power Application: Designed specifically for 170 Vdc telecommunication power systems, where accurate current-limiting response supports coordinated overcurrent protection schemes.
