FAQs
FNQ-5-6/10 uses ferrule-end connections and measures 1.5 inches in length with 0.41 inch width and height. Install in compliant enclosures, ensure appropriate crimp ferrules, and secure endcaps to resist vibration. Verify 500 V rating and 5.6 A capacity align with the panel’s load and conductor sizing for reliable protection.
The FNQ-5-6/10 has a 5.60 A amperage rating and a 10 kAIC interrupt rating at 500 VAC. This combination provides robust protection for motor loads and circuits with moderate fault energy while allowing normal startup surges without nuisance trips.
Yes. It is a time-delay fuse designed specifically to tolerate short inrush currents typical of motor starters and transformers, reducing nuisance trips while protecting downstream wiring and components from overcurrent events.
The FNQ-5-6/10 is CE Marked and RoHS compliant, reflecting European regulatory compliance and restriction of hazardous substances. These certifications support regulatory approval and supply-chain sustainability for global deployments.
Stock using standard Bussmann catalogs; the fuse is non-indicating with standard packaging. Its compact 1.5 in length and ferrule end connections simplify stocking and replacement in control panels, while its 500 V rating supports wide industrial use.
