FAQs
When installing the BG3022PQ, plan for a two-pole arrangement with pressure plate or quick-connect terminations to ensure secure, vibration-resistant connections. Verify 600 V maximum rating and 1-20 A amperage range match the protected circuit. Use proper torque and follow panel wiring practices to minimize contact resistance and maximize fault-clearing reliability.
BG3022PQ provides two-pole protection with a 100 kAIC short-circuit rating at 600 V, enabling fast disconnect under fault conditions in motor drives and control circuits. Its Class G design simplifies integration into standard Bussmann BG protection schemes, offering reliable protection without complicating the control cabinet layout.
Yes, BG3022PQ is RoHS compliant and UL Recognized with CSA Certification, ensuring regulatory compliance and safe operation in regulated environments. These certifications support audits and supplier qualification processes, reducing risk for OEMs and end users alike.
Industries such as manufacturing, process automation, and equipment manufacturing benefit from BG3022PQ for panel boards, control cabinets, and machinery protection. Its two-pole 600 V rating and high short-circuit capability make it suitable for relay logic, motor controllers, and critical control circuits in harsh industrial environments.
By standardizing on the BG open fuse family, BG3022PQ reduces spare-part variety and simplifies procurement. Its quick-connect termination speeds wiring and maintenance, while the high short-circuit rating improves uptime by reducing unplanned downtime due to protection failures. The RoHS and recognized certifications further reduce compliance-related risks and costs.
