Eaton AGU-50GP Fuse - Fast-Acting 50 A Gold-Endcaps
Part Number: AGU-50GP
Quick Summary
The Eaton AGU-50GP fuse provides fast-acting circuit protection for industrial electrical systems. Engineers often face the challenge of preventing nuisance trips while maintaining reliability in compact control panels and demanding AV equipment. Note: Certification data is not listed in this dataset; consult Eaton datasheets for CE, SIL, IP ratings and other approvals. Designed for straightforward procurement and easy installation, it integrates with standard Bussmann AGU holders and spare parts to minimize downtime. This combination delivers cost-effective protection with predictable performance across industrial controls. By combining a 50 A fast-acting rating with a compact 5.5 in body and gold-plated endcaps, the AGU-50GP supports dense panel layouts. And the non-indicating fuse design reduces panel clutter while still allowing external diagnostics where needed.

FAQs
Install the AGU-50GP by aligning the fuse with the holder terminals and pressing firmly until the endcaps seat. The 5.5 in body and 0.4625 in width fit standard Bussmann AGU holders, and the gold-plated brass endcaps provide stable, low-resistance terminations. Always power down equipment before replacement and verify panel clearance.
The fast-acting design interrupts overcurrent quickly to shield sensitive loads from damage. A 50 A rating indicates the maximum continuous current the fuse can carry safely; if fault current exceeds this value, the fuse opens rapidly to prevent overheating and component failure.
Yes. The AGU-50GP is specified for applications in high-end stereo and AV markets and is compatible with standard AGU fuse holders in control panels, delivering reliable protection without compromising space in dense installations.
Certification data is not provided in the current dataset. For regulatory approvals such as CE, SIL, or IP ratings, consult Eaton's official datasheet or product page to confirm compliance for your application.
Using a standardized Bussmann-Series AGU fuse like the AGU-50GP reduces stocking complexity and lead times. The gold-plated endcaps and non-indicating design simplify installation and replacement, while a robust 50 A rating helps minimize downtime from overcurrent events.
