Amperage range from 0.18 to 15 A enables precise protection for a wide spectrum of control circuits, reducing nuisance trips and component wear while supporting scalable automation solutions. This translates to measurable business impact through improved uptime, longer equipment life, and reduced maintenance costs in manufacturing lines and packaging facilities. The 100 kAIC interrupt rating delivers robust fault-current handling, delivering high fault tolerance in demanding industrial environments and easing compliance with protective standards during commissioning. The single-pole Class G design with a 600 V rating ensures compatibility with common SC fuse configurations, enabling plug-and-play integration into existing panels and simplifying spare-part management. The #14-10 AWG Cu/Al wire size support broad field wiring options, while screw/quick connect terminals speed installation and service, cutting labor time by minutes per panel. Thermoplastic housing offers durable, lightweight protection in indoor environments, contributing to lower shipping and handling costs. Compliance with RoHS, UL Recognized, and CSA Certified requirements provides regulatory peace of mind across global operations. This fuse block is well-suited for machine control, process automation, and electrical protection applications in conveyors, robotics, and power distribution networks. In practice, manufacturers gain faster time-to-value during panel refurbishments and new builds, with reduced risk of noncompliant wiring or mismatched fuses thanks to standardized BG3011SQ configurations.

FAQs
BG3011SQ accepts SC fuses and uses screw/quick connect terminals for a single-pole configuration. It wires with #14-10 AWG Cu/Al, supports up to 600 V, and provides an amperage range of 0.18 to 15 A. This compatibility simplifies spare parts stocking and reduces the risk of mis-match during panel assembly, improving installation quality.
Key electrical specifications include amperage 0.18–15 A, voltage rating 600 V, interrupt rating 100 kAIC, and short-circuit rating 100 kA. These ratings ensure reliable overcurrent protection for typical industrial control circuits, enabling fast disconnection during faults and meeting safety standards. This makes it suitable for motor starters, PLC panels, and similar protection scenarios.
Yes. BG3011SQ is specifically designed for use with SC fuses in industrial control panels, switchgear, and enclosures. Its Class G thermoplastic body and 600 V rating support common control circuits, while screw/quick connect terminals streamline wiring and service. The compact form factor also helps fit into crowded panel layouts and supports straightforward upgrades.
The BG3011SQ carries UL Recognized and CSA Certified markings and is RoHS Compliant, aligning with global electrical safety and environmental requirements. These certifications support compliance documentation, supplier qualification, and market access across North America and Europe, simplifying audits and regulatory reporting for OEMs and integrators.
Installation is accelerated by screw/quick connect wiring and clearly labeled terminals, while the wide conductor range accommodates common field cables. The unit’s thermoplastic housing resists damage in busy panels, and its high fault-current rating minimizes downtime during fuse changes or maintenance. Overall, it reduces labor time, stock variety, and risk of improper fuse selection in panel builds.
