Eaton AGU-5 Fuse - 5 A, 32 V Fast-Acting Ferrule Ends

Fast-acting protection is the core advantage of the AGU-5 fuse. With a 5 A amperage rating and a 32 V maximum, the device interrupts faults quickly to limit damage to loads and sensitive electronics. In practice, this translates to shorter fault duration, reduced restart times, and lower downtime in control panels and compact power supplies. Ferrule-end x ferrule-end connections support rapid, reliable terminations. This design reduces miswiring, helps achieve consistent contact pressure, and speeds field service during panel upgrades. The result is more predictable protection performance and fewer anomalous trips in busy industrial environments. The fuse features nickel-plated brass endcaps and silver-plated fuse caps, delivering low contact resistance and improved corrosion resistance. These physical advantages translate into longer service life in humid, dusty, or high-vibration installations. For technicians, this means fewer replacement cycles and more stable operation. As part of the Bussmann midget fuse family, AGU-5 uses a compact 5.5 in long form factor with standard packaging, ideal for space-constrained panels and assemblies common in appliances and consumer electronics. The form factor also supports easy cross-reference with Bussmann catalogs and Eaton datasheets. Compatibility with common fuse holders and mounting configurations found in industrial control gear reduces configuration time and ensures consistent performance when replacing older Bussmann AGU fuses. Engineers appreciate the clear amperage and voltage ratings for accurate protection calibration. Documentation such as the Eaton AGU-5 specification sheet and Bussmann catalogs supports correct selection and compliance planning. Access to the AGU-5 data sheet helps verify fast-acting characteristics and end-cap construction during design reviews.
