BK/AGC-4/10-R

Fuses are important components in electronic circuitry that are used for protection and to prevent overloads or short circuits in power and signal lines. The BK/AGC-4/10-R is an industrial-grade fuse used in a variety of industrial and commercial applications. In this article, we’ll explore the application field and working principle of the BK/AGC-4/10-R fuse.

The BK/AGC-4/10-R is a glass tube fuse that is UL recognized for safety, and is rated for 600V AC and DC applications. It can be used in various industrial and commercial applications, such as motors, motors-in branches, and lighting controls. It is suitable for applications in residential, commercial and light industrial settings, as well as portable equipment, tools, and lighting fixtures.

The BK/AGC-4/10-R has an interrupt rating of 10,000A at 120V, 10,000A at 240V, and 10,000A at 400V. This makes it ideal for applications that require high current capacity. It is designed with a clear, molded body that allows for easy visual inspection of the fuse element, so that you can quickly detect any damage. The fuse is also designed with a six-inch lead wire, allowing it to be easily installed and connected to a circuit.

The working principle of the BK/AGC-4/10-R fuse is based on a principle of electrical arcs. When a circuit is overloaded, an arc is created between the fuse element and the contacts of the fuse. The arc heats up the fuse element, eventually melting it away, breaking the circuit. This prevents further overloads and damage to the circuit.

Additionally, the fuse element’s size and design can also affect its performance. The BK/AGC-4/10-R is designed with a dual-element fuse that provides a longer life and improved protection. This design allows the current to heat both elements, increasing the heating time and providing greater fuse protection.

The BK/AGC-4/10-R is also designed with an additional secondary element that is designed to handle lower current levels. This element is designed to provide additional protection for the main fuse element, protecting the circuit from low-level electrical arcs. This secondary element is designed to protect the fuse from damage caused by intermittent or low level surges.

In summary, the BK/AGC-4/10-R fuse is an industrial-grade fuse that is designed for 600V AC and DC applications. It is designed with a clear, molded body that allows for easy visual inspection of the fuse element, and a dual-element fuse provides long life and improved protection. The working principle of the BK/AGC-4/10-R is based on a principle of electrical arcs, with an additional secondary element that provides additional protection for the main fuse element.
