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

Description:

8 Amp 250V Glass Fuses are essential safety devices designed to protect electrical circuits from overcurrent or short circuits. These fuses are constructed with a glass tube housing a thin wire or element that melts when excessive current flows through it, interrupting the circuit and preventing damage to equipment or even fire hazards. The 5x20mm size is a common standard, and they are widely used in various electronic devices and appliances.   

Key Features:

• Rated Current: 8 Amps  
• Rated Voltage: 250 Volts    
• Glass Tube Housing: Allows visual inspection of the fuse element. If the wire is broken, the fuse has blown.
• 5x20mm Size: Standard size, easy to replace, and widely available.
• Fast-Acting: These fuses are designed to blow quickly in case of a significant overcurrent.   
• Pack of 10: Convenient packaging for replacements and spares.

Applications:

• Household Appliances: Protection for devices like TVs, stereos, lamps, and other electronics.   
• Industrial Equipment: Protection for machinery, power supplies, and control systems.
• Automotive Electronics: Protection for various electronic circuits in vehicles.
• DIY Projects: Use in electronic projects to protect circuits from overcurrent.   
• Electrical Panels: Can be used in some electrical panels for circuit protection.
