Bussmann TPS Series Telecommunication Fuse, Ferrule End, Non-Indicating

The Bussmann TPS Series Telecommunication Fuse from Eaton is a current-limiting, non-indicating ferrule-end fuse engineered for DC telecommunication power protection. Rated 170 Vdc with a 100 kAIC interrupt rating, this fuse features a glass melamine tube body with silver-plated brass ferrule-end terminations for reliable, low-resistance connections in ferrule-style fuse holders and blocks. The TPS series is available across nine amperage ratings from 1A to 30A (1A, 2A, 5A, 6A, 10A, 15A, 20A, 25A, and 30A), letting you match the exact current-limiting protection your telecom circuit requires. Its non-indicating, current-limiting design provides dependable overcurrent protection for sensitive telecommunications switching and power equipment.

Key Features

  • Amperage Range: Available in 1A, 2A, 5A, 6A, 10A, 15A, 20A, 25A, and 30A ratings to match a wide range of telecom circuit protection needs.
  • Voltage Rating: 170 Vdc rating suited for DC telecommunication power distribution systems.
  • Interrupt Rating: 100 kAIC interrupt capacity for high fault-current telecom environments.
  • Current-Limiting Design: Limits let-through energy during a fault condition to help protect sensitive downstream telecom equipment.
  • Non-Indicating Construction: Non-indicating body design suited to standard telecom fuse holder applications.
  • Ferrule End Termination: Ferrule end to ferrule end configuration for secure seating in ferrule-style fuse holders and blocks.
  • Durable Construction: Glass melamine tube body with silver-plated brass ferrules for corrosion resistance and consistent, low-resistance conductivity.
  • Series Consistency: Shared TPS series construction and ratings platform across all nine amperage options simplifies stocking and replacement.

Bussmann TPS-10 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a ferrule-end TPS fuse fit my existing telecom fuse block?
The TPS is a ferrule end to ferrule end fuse, so it seats in ferrule-style clip holders and fuse blocks. It will not work in a holder built for bolt-in or blade/knife-blade terminations. If the fuse you are pulling out has plain metal caps gripped by spring clips, the ferrule TPS is the matching style.
2) Is 100 kAIC enough for a central office battery plant with high available fault current?
The TPS carries a 100 kAIC interrupting rating at 170 Vdc, which covers the high short-circuit currents a large VRLA battery string can deliver at the distribution bay. It is also current-limiting, so it clamps let-through energy during the fault rather than passing the full prospective current to downstream switching gear.
3) Does the TPS fuse have a blown-fuse indicator?
No. The TPS is a non-indicating fuse, so there is no pop-up pin or flag to show it has opened. If your rack relies on visual blown-fuse indication or an alarm contact, you need an indicating-style telecom fuse instead.
4) What is the TPS fuse body made of, and will the terminations corrode in a cabinet?
Body is a glass melamine tube with silver-plated brass ferrules. The silver plating is there for corrosion resistance and a low-resistance contact in the holder clips, which matters on a DC bus where a high-resistance joint shows up as heat.
5) Where are Bussmann TPS fuses typically used?
Telecom power distribution: central office switching equipment, DC power systems, and overcurrent protection for rack and cabinet feeds, generally as a drop-in for ferrule-style fuse holders and blocks already in place.
