2JQ 6

Fuses

A fuse is an electrical device, used to protect electrical circuits from damage caused by current overloads. The fuse consists of a conductive wire or strip protected by an insulating container or box. When a current overload occurs, the wire or strip melts due to the increased current, thus breaking the circuit and protecting the connected equipment. Fuses are important components because they provide electrical safety and prevent costly failures in electrical circuits.

2JQ 6 application field and working principle

The 2JQ 6 fuse is a high breaking capacity fuse which is suitable for an extended voltage range. It is mainly used in low-voltage systems, such as households and light commercial applications. It features a high breaking capacity of 10kA (Ics), with an interrupting capacity of 400V. The 2JQ 6 is also rated for a wide range of currents, up to 690V.

The 2JQ 6 fuse works by creating a gap between the contact points made by the current wire, in order to isolate the circuit. This gap is caused when the current wire melts due to the increased current. The gap created breaks the circuit, which prevents further damage to the equipment connected to the circuit. The interruption of the current also prevents possible fire hazards due to short-circuiting. The 2JQ 6 fuse is a reliable and cost-effective device to protect electrical circuits from overloads and short-circuits.

The 2JQ 6 fuse is UL listed, and meets all the requirements of the UL 4248-4 standards. This ensures that it is a high quality product that meets safety requirements and provides reliable protection against current overloads and short-circuits.
