Eaton KAC-1 high speed fuse - UL Recognized
Part Number: KAC-1
Quick Summary
KAC-1 high speed fuse protects electrical circuits with rapid interruption for control panels and motor drives. Engineers often struggle with nuisance trips from slower fuses and arc damage during short, high-energy faults; this solution minimizes outages while safeguarding sensitive loads. UL Recognized and CE Marked status, combined with a 200 kAIC interrupt rating, support global compliance across critical applications. The non-indicating design paired with blade-end x blade-end connections and stud mounting delivers flexible installation in compact spaces, aligning with Bussmann series practices. For panel builders and maintenance teams, KAC-1 provides reliable protection without complicating field wiring or inventory requirements, while enabling scalable protection strategies across equipment fleets.

FAQs
The KAC-1 uses blade-end x blade-end connections with stud mounting, offering flexible mounting options in compact enclosures. Its 0.5 in width and 0.5 in depth help maximize panel footprint, while a 2.84 in height accommodates common DIN rail or tray layouts. This setup simplifies field replacement and reduces cabinet rework during upgrades.
KAC-1 is rated for 1 A and provides an interrupt rating of 200 kAIC, enabling fast fault clearance for small to medium circuits. The device is non-indicating, blade-end x blade-end, with stud mounting, making it suitable for motor drives, control panels, and feeder circuits that require high-speed protection and reliable isolation.
Yes. KAC-1 is CE Marked and UL Recognized, ensuring compatibility with European and North American safety standards. This combination supports cross-border deployments in manufacturing facilities and automation projects, helping maintain regulatory compliance while standardizing protection across sites.
By delivering rapid interruption at 200 kAIC, the KAC-1 minimizes arc energy and downstream damage, reducing repair times and outages. Its compact form factor lowers panel space costs, while UL/CE compliance reduces regulatory risk. These factors collectively improve machine uptime and lower total cost of ownership for automation systems.
