Eaton BK/ATC-15 ATC blade fuse - 1 kAIC
Part Number: BK/ATC-15
Quick Summary
The Eaton BK/ATC-15 ATC blade fuse protects automotive and industrial DC circuits. Engineers often struggle with compact devices that are easy to replace and clearly identified in busy panels. RoHS compliant by factory specification, this fuse aligns with global regulatory expectations while simplifying procurement. The 15 A rating, 32 Vdc maximum, and 1 kAIC interrupt capability address common protection needs in low-voltage power systems. With a color-coded blue housing and a non-indicating indicator, it supports streamlined maintenance workflows and reduces the risk of incorrect fuse replacement in high- throughput environments. In short, it delivers reliable protection without complicating part stocking or installation in control cabinets and vehicle wiring harnesses.

Eaton Specification Sheet - BK/ATC-15
Feature → Business Impact → Application: 15 A rating, 32 Vdc, and 1 kAIC interrupt rating deliver reliable overcurrent protection for low-voltage DC circuits while minimizing nuisance blows and equipment damage. This translates to fewer unplanned downtime events and lower maintenance costs in motor drives, automation panels, and automotive harnesses. Feature → Application: ATC blade fuse geometry provides quick, tool-free replacement in standard fuse blocks, enabling rapid service in field installations and OEM assemblies, reducing repair times and downtime. Feature → Application: Blue color code enhances visual identification during inspections and stocking, cutting MTTR and improving part traceability across multi-skilling maintenance teams. Feature → Application: Non-indicating fuse design integrates seamlessly with indicatorless systems where status signaling is managed elsewhere, avoiding false alarms in complex control architectures. Feature → Application: Colored plastic housing offers durable insulation and clear labeling, supporting reliable installation in crowded panels and harsh environments. Feature → Application: RoHS compliant construction ensures regulatory alignment for European and global deployments, facilitating cross-border sourcing and lifecycle planning. Feature → Application: Bulk packaging of 2000 units supports cost-effective procurement for OEMs and distributors, streamlining supply chains and inventory management.

FAQs
Install the BK/ATC-15 by aligning the blade ends with the fuse block contacts and pressing until seated. The ATC geometry is designed for fast, tool-free replacement in standard fuse blocks used in industrial panels and automotive harnesses. Ensure the block is compatible with 32 Vdc systems and that the installation area remains clear of conductive debris.
The BK/ATC-15 fuse is rated for 15 A, operates at 32 Vdc, and provides a 1 kAIC interrupt rating. It features a blue color code for quick identification and a non-indicating fuse indicator. Dimensions are 0.76 in length, 0.752 in height, and 0.27 in width, with an approximate weight of 0.5 lb.
Yes. With its low-voltage DC rating, compact blade fuse form factor, and reliable interrupt capacity, BK/ATC-15 is well-suited for automotive electrical systems, machine control panels, and other industrial DC circuits where space is at a premium and predictable protection is essential.
The data indicates RoHS compliance as a key compliance feature. For region-specific certifications such as CE or UL, consult Eaton directly to confirm availability or alternative configurations that meet local regulatory requirements.
Using BK/ATC-15 provides reliable overcurrent protection with a compact footprint, reducing panel size and wiring complexity. Its blue color code simplifies maintenance, bulk packaging helps reduce procurement costs, and RoHS compliance supports cross-border production. Overall, it lowers downtime, speeds service, and tightens control over inventory and compliance.
