Fuseholders

Fuseholders are electrical accessories typically used to secure and power fuses. Most of them are designed to protect electrical circuits in case of overcurrent, short-circuit or overload conditions. They can be used in both commercial and residential applications.

One of the most widely used fuseholders is the LFR600302P, which is a standard-duty ganged fuseholder with a durable thermoplastic construction. It has two rubber mounting grommets for panel mounting and can accept standard 3AG 10 to 30A plastic bolt-in fuses. Its patented design provides superior strain relief with fast installation.

Application Field of LFR600302P

LFR600302P is suitable for a wide range of applications, such as automotive, equipment, lighting, and industrial control. It can be used in UV chokes, starters, circuit breakers, pumps, fans, transformers, voltage regulators, and other circuits. It also can be used in many commercial locations such as retail stores, restaurants, and hotels for high-amperage applications such as refrigerators, air conditioning, and lighting.

The patented design of the LFR600302P features a recessed top, which enables the user to easily attach multiple fuseholders in a ganged application. This feature also allows the user to quickly identify the fused circuit in a ganged application.

Working Principle of LFR600302P

The working principle of the LFR600302P is simple. Its innovative design helps to protect the electrical circuit from damage due to overcurrent, short-circuit, and overload conditions. It contains two separate parts - the fuseholder and the fuse. The fuseholder is designed to hold the fuse in place in the event of an overcurrent or short circuit. In the event of an overcurrent, the fuse wire will melt, breaking the circuit and protecting the equipment from damage.

The fuseholder also helps to ensure consistent performance in the electrical circuit by controlling the amount of current that can pass through the circuit. This allows the circuit to remain functional, even in large electrical loads. The fuseholder also helps to protect against arcing and the associated damage.

In addition, the LFR600302P fuseholder utilizes rubber grommets for mounting to the panel or enclosure, which helps to reduce vibration and improve the connection quality. It also has a panel seal to protect against water and dust, and helps to improve the holding power of the device.
