FAQs

The BK3/GBH-V020A6F is designed for use with standard Bussmann series mounting and compatible holders in electrical protection and circuit control assemblies. It integrates with common fuse blocks and panel boards, enabling straightforward retrofits. For accurate layout and spacing, reference Bussmann catalog no. 1007 and confirm enclosure clearances and thermal ratings to prevent improper seating or premature nuisance trips.
This device carries a 20 A amperage rating and belongs to the GBH-V high-speed fuse family, engineered to interrupt fault currents quickly. The product identifier is BK3/GBH-V020A6F. For precise voltage ratings, interrupt curves, and environmental tolerances, consult the Eaton datasheet BK3/GBH-V020A6F and the Bussmann series catalog to ensure exact match with your application requirements.
Recommended for control panels, motor controllers, and power distribution blocks in industrial settings where fast fault interruption minimizes damage. The GBH-V series suits circuits needing short interruption times and reliable protection. Its compact form factor supports space-constrained installations, enabling easier retrofits and scalable protection across evolving automation architectures.
Certification expectations for high-speed fuses vary by region. Typical protections include CE marking and UL/CSA recognition when specified by the factory. For BK3/GBH-V020A6F, confirm with Eaton to verify local compliance, ensure any required IP enclosure ratings, and obtain the latest datasheet or certificate documentation before installation to meet project-specific regulatory requirements.
High-speed fuses reduce downtime by quickly clearing faults, lowering arc energy, and protecting downstream equipment. Regular inspection of fuse blocks and alignment with upstream protection settings helps maintain reliability. The compact form factor simplifies retrofits, reducing labor and replacement costs, while access to catalogs such as the Bussmann full-line catalog supports rapid BOM updates and long-term cost savings.
