5 Amp 250V Glass Fuses Tubes 5x20mm (pack 10)

5 Amp 250V Glass Fuses are safety devices designed to protect electrical circuits from damage caused by overcurrent or short circuits. These fuses consist of a glass tube encasing a thin wire or element. When the current flowing through the circuit exceeds 5 Amps, the element melts, breaking the circuit and preventing damage to connected equipment. The 5x20mm size is a standard dimension, making these fuses widely compatible and readily available.   

Key Features:

• Rated Current: 5 Amps 
• Rated Voltage: 250 Volts AC 
• Glass Tube Housing: Allows for visual inspection. A broken wire indicates a blown fuse.
