J60030-1P

Fuseholders are widely used in various electrical applications to protect electronic components, wiring, and circuity from overload or short circuit conditions. A particular type of fuseholder is the J60030-1P, commonly used in building projects such as light duty residential wiring and light switch and outlet applications. This fuseholder is designed with specific safety-related specifications and features that make it ideal for residential and commercial electrical applications.

The J60030-1P fuseholder is rated for 30 A at 125 V and can hold a 1/4” x 1-1/4” fuse link. It is designed for single pole applications and features a self-checking wiring system, which helps ensure wiring is safely and securely installed. This self-checking system is accomplished by the use of a spring-loaded receptacle that is designed to only accept the specified fuse. The contact point is recessed to prevent accidental short-circuiting, and the socket is solidly constructed for a secure fit even when under constant vibration.

The J60030-1P is also UL listed, and complies with all applicable CSA safety standards. It is designed to fit in a standard size cut-out, and comes with a self-tapping mounting screw. The spring-loaded terminals of the fuseholder are designed to ensure a secure, stable connection that will not loosen over time. Additionally, the mounting ears help ensure the fuseholder remains securely mounted.

The working principle of the J60030-1P is relatively simple. When power is applied to the fuseholder, the spring-loaded receptacle is triggered and the fuse is inserted into the fuseholder. The circuit is then completed, allowing power to flow through the circuit. If the current exceeds the rated amperage, the fuse will blow, disconnecting the circuit and protecting the components, wiring, and circuitry from damage.

The J60030-1P fuseholder is a cost-effective, safe, and reliable solution for protecting residential and commercial wiring and circuits from electrical overloads. The fuseholder is designed with consideration to safety and is UL listed and CSA compliant to ensure safe and secure installation. The spring-loaded receptacle, recessed contact point, and securely mounted mounting ears help ensure the fuseholder is properly and securely installed, and that it will remain securely fastened over time.
