170M5466-G

Electrical Specialty Fuses

A specialty fuse to meet the needs of electronics and consumer applications is a 170M5466-G fuse. This compact little fuse has applications in a wide range of consumer, industrial and automotive devices. It is an instantaneous operation stainless steel fuse element which can provide a very fast response time to protect devices from harmful voltage spikes.

Application Field

The 170M5466-G fuse is commonly used in appliances, circuit boards, electronic devices, and other areas that may be subject to high voltage overloads. It is suitable for a range of applications including automotive, consumer electronics, industrial electronics, medical equipment, instrumentation and more. This fuse can be used as an overvoltage protection device, short-circuit breaker, and fuse protection device.

The 170M5466-G fuse can be used in a variety of different applications. It can be used in higher power supplies and motor starters, as well as in surge protectors. It is also suitable for electronic circuits and power distribution in both general and industrial spaces. This fuse also works as a very effective overvoltage protection device in motors, power transformers, and circuit boards.

Working Principle

The 170M5466-G fuse uses a metal filament that is melted in the presence of an electric current. This melting of the filament causes a break in the flow of current, thus preventing an overvoltage or short-circuit condition from damaging the circuits. When the current is too much for the fuse to handle, it breaks open and the flow of current is stopped.

This fuse works by using a metal alloy that is heated to a temperature of 1450°F (788°C). When current passes through the alloy, it melts and creates a gap. The gap is small enough that no current can get through, thus protecting the circuit from damage. The fuse also has a temperature safety feature, in that when the temperature inside the fuse exceeds a certain set point, it automatically opens and can be reset.

The 170M5466-G fuse is an excellent choice for a wide range of consumer, industrial and automotive applications. It is designed to provide a very fast response time to harmful voltage spikes and is a reliable and effective fuse in any circuit. This fuse is easy to install and is an essential component of any application that needs a fast and reliable voltage protection.
