Non-indicating
Non-indicating design reduces maintenance panel clutter and minimizes misinterpretation during routine checks, translating to faster troubleshooting and fewer unnecessary trips in medium- to high-current motor circuits. The 8 A rating paired with a 600 V maximum supports small to medium motors while preserving selectivity and fast fault clearing in standard drive setups. With a 200 kAIC interrupt rating, it reliably handles high fault currents common in industrial facilities, helping protect cables, starters, and related power electronics. UL Listed and CSA Certified, this fuse meets North American safety and performance standards, simplifying code compliance and vendor qualification for audits. The compact 5 in length and lightweight 1.6 lb packaging enables straightforward installation in crowded control panels, reducing enclosure footprint and wiring complexity. The standard packaging and RK1 class designation ensure consistent protection characteristics across Eaton’s Edison fuse family for quick, repeatable replacements.

FAQs
The LESRK8 is designed for use in standard fuse holders that accept RK1 class fuses within Eaton’s Edison protection family. Verify the catalog number LESRK8 matches your protection scheme, ensuring an 8 A rating and 600 V maximum voltage are suitable for the motor or drive application. Confirm enclosure space and terminal pitch match your control panel layout.
Key specs include an 8 A amperage rating, a 200 kAIC interrupt rating, and a 600 V voltage rating. It is a non-indicating fuse of Class RK1 construction and is UL Listed as well as CSA Certified, aligning with North American safety and performance standards for motor protection.
Yes. The 200 kAIC interrupt rating supports rapid interruption during fault events in high-inrush motor circuits, while the 8 A size is appropriate for small to medium motors. The non-indicating design minimizes panel clutter, making it favorable for installations with dense wiring and frequent start/stop cycles.
LESRK8 carries UL Listed and CSA Certified markings, which cover safety and performance requirements for North American installations. While CE is not specified for this product, UL Listed and CSA Certified provide strong regulatory alignment for typical industrial environments.
The non-indicating design reduces maintenance checks and misinterpretation risk, while the robust 200 kAIC rating lowers the likelihood of nuisance faults in high-current applications. With reliable protection and Eaton’s support, this translates to reduced downtime, predictable replacement cycles, and lower overall maintenance costs in motor protection schemes.
