TCFH60

Fuses are critical components in many electronic circuits. They protect electrical circuits from overcurrent or overvoltage damage. In safety-critical applications, fuses must be reliably held in place. Fuseholders provide secure positioning of high-voltage and low-voltage fuses, allowing the circuit to be rapidly and safely replaced if the fuse trips.

The TCFH60 fuseholder is a crimp-style fuseholder designed for mid-voltage applications. It is rated to carry up to a 60A current, and has mechanical retention for secure positioning.

The TCFH60 is a single-pole fuseholder. It has two wires emerging from the top of the fuse housing, which are inserted into holes on the same side of the fuse holder. The crimp fingers are then crimped to the wires, creating a secure connection inside the fuse housing. The two terminals that emerge from the back of the fuseholder have male and female ends with a locking tab to ensure secure connections.

This type of fuseholder is particularly useful in applications where vibration and shock are possible. The locking tab is designed to ensure that the connection remains secure, even when the fuseholder is subjected to vibration or shock. Additionally, the crimp fingers of the TCFH60 fuseholder have the added advantage of providing strain relief for the conductor.

The principle behind the TCFH60 fuseholder is simple. The fuse holds two strands of current-carrying wire in place. When the current through the fuse exceeds its rating, the fuse melts, thus breaking the circuit. This prevents overcurrent damage to the circuit.

The TCHF60 fuseholder is designed for applications in power-supply circuits, as well as in home and industrial circuits. It is particularly well suited for use in panels and junction boxes, providing secure connections between high and low voltage cables. It is also a popular choice for applications in motor control centers, switchboards, and control panels.

In addition to the advantages of its mechanical retention, the TCFH60 fuseholder is UL listed and CSA certfied for its quick-connect design. This ensures that the fuseholder has been designed and tested to meet safety standards and provide reliable performance.

In summary, the TCFH60 fuseholder is a single-pole, crimp-style fuseholder designed for use in mid-voltage applications. It is rated to carry up to 60A current, and provides mechanical retention for secure positioning. The principle behind the TCFH60 is to hold two strands of current-carrying wire in place. When the current through the fuse exceeds its rating, the fuse melts and breaks the circuit to prevent overcurrent damage to the circuit. The TCFH60 fuseholder is UL listed and CSA certified for its quick-connect design, and is suitable for use in power-supply circuits, as well as in home and industrial circuits.
