Special features
Non-indicating
Feature: 5 A amperage rating paired with a 200 kAIC interrupt rating at 600 V ensures selective fault isolation and rapid clearance of harmful faults. Business Impact: This combination minimizes downstream damage, reduces unplanned downtime, and protects costly motors, drives, and control logic from catastrophic short circuits. Application: Ideal for automation cabinets, motor starters, and control panels in manufacturing and process environments where reliable protection is essential. Feature: Non-indicating design preserves clean front panels and reduces wiring clutter in high-density enclosures. Business Impact: The absence of a visual fuse indicator lowers installation complexity and maintenance overhead, while still enabling quick diagnostics through existing indicators or the Eaton datasheet and panel monitoring strategy. Application: Suitable for dense control racks and machine cabinets where indicators are monitored remotely or via centralized SCADA. Feature: Standard packaging and a 10-unit quantity simplifies stocking and procurement. Business Impact: Improves maintenance planning, reduces stockouts, and accelerates re-order cycles for OEMs and service technicians. Application: Fits service fleets and distribution channels that require predictable lead times and consistent part numbers, such as Eaton Edison series users and modular panel builders. Feature: Compliance credentials—UL Listed, CSA Certified, and CE Marked—support safe installation in regulated facilities. Business Impact: Streamlines qualification, audits, and safety certifications, lowering risk of non-compliance penalties and rework. Application: Particularly valuable in automotive, food & beverage, pharmaceutical, and energy sectors with strict electrical standards. Feature: Rich technical documentation and digital assets are readily accessible, including the Edison full-line catalog and the JFL5 datasheet. Business Impact: Speeds design-in, reduces inquiry turnaround, and improves cross-reference accuracy for engineers and procurement teams. Application: Useful during spec generation, BOM creation, and training across engineering teams and field service.

FAQs
The JFL5 is part of the Edison series J fuses and is designed for Edison series fuse holders. It uses a standard 2.25 in length by 0.81 in width footprint and comes in standard packaging of 10 units, simplifying field stocking and replacement in automation cabinets. This compatibility ensures engineers can quickly spec and substitute without custom adapters, and it aligns with Eaton catalogs for consistent design-in.
Electrical ratings for the JFL5 include a 5 A amperage rating, a 600 V maximum voltage, and a 200 kAIC interrupt rating. These ratings define the fuse’s protective range, enabling precise overcurrent protection for low to moderate power circuits while safely interrupting high fault currents in demanding industrial environments such as packaging lines or process control panels.
Yes. The JFL5 fuse is UL Listed and CSA Certified with CE Marked compliance. These certifications indicate the device meets recognized safety standards, simplifies regulatory approvals for equipment assemblies, and supports international sourcing. Relying on these marks helps buyers satisfy internal QA checks and external audits without costly supplementary testing.
An interrupt rating of 200 kAIC is important because it defines the maximum fault current the fuse can interrupt without losing integrity. In high-energy environments, this capability protects feeders, cables, and downstream equipment, reduces the likelihood of cascading failures, and minimizes downtime caused by fuse-related faults in power distribution to motors and control circuits.
Install JFL5 fuses in standard Edison fuse holders inside 600 V rated control cabinets. Use the 10-unit packaging for stocking, ensure adequate cooling and ventilation, and observe enclosure clearances to prevent overheating. Verify compatibility with existing monitoring and switchgear, and refer to Eaton datasheets for mounting orientation and replacement intervals to maintain reliable protection.
