Eaton 24F-5 Telecommunication Fuse - Flat green 60 VDC
Part Number: 24F-5
Quick Summary
The Eaton Bussmann Type 24 telecommunication fuse 24F-5 delivers reliable overcurrent protection for telecom and data enclosures. Engineers often struggle to fit protective devices into compact racks without sacrificing protection or serviceability. Although the data lists Not Applicable for warranty and compliance, this part carries a 60 V DC, 5 A rating in a flat, color-coded green body that simplifies field replacement. Used in telecom and data systems, its small footprint supports higher-density assemblies and reduces total cost of ownership. For procurement and maintenance teams, the combination of a compact form factor and clear identification translates into faster installs, simpler stocking, and fewer panel reworks over the lifetime of the equipment.
