Special features
Ferrule design, Type P
Feature → Business Impact → Application: The PONC40 is a 40 A, 250 V fuse with a 10 kAIC interrupt rating, delivering robust fault protection for control circuits and automation panels, which reduces damage from short circuits and minimizes downtime in critical production lines. This translates to lower MTTR and higher line uptime when integrated into electrical protection strategies for machine control cabinets and panel boards. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Ferrule design, Type P, provides reliable, secure termination that simplifies wiring and improves terminations in high-density control panels, reducing installation time and risk of loose connections during field service. Application includes standard Bussmann ferrule-compatible terminals in industrial automation setups and motor control centers. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Non-indicating fuse design minimizes panel visual clutter and simplifies replacement workflows in environments where indicator windows are undesirable or space is limited, improving maintenance efficiency in automation deployments. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Standard packaging and a 10-piece quantity support efficient procurement and stocking for maintenance, repair, and operations teams, enabling faster reorder cycles and consistent supply for routine panel refreshes. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Certifications status and compliance notes guide project planning; CSA Certification is Not Applicable, so teams can plan around internal standards and ensure alignment with site safety requirements while continuing to use the Eaton Bussmann PON family for fuse protection.

FAQs
When installing the PONC40, ensure compatible ferrule terminations are used and that the fuse is seated in a standard Bussmann series holder or panel cutout designed for ferrule designs. Verify tightening torque specifications on terminal ferrules and replace only with identical PONC40 units to maintain the 10 kAIC interrupt rating. Plan for straightforward substitution during maintenance, as the 10-piece packaging supports rapid stocking and minimized downtime.
The PONC40 is rated for 40 A, 250 V with an interrupt rating of 10 kAIC. It is suitable for overcurrent protection in control panels, automation circuits, and feeder lines within industrial environments. Use it where short-circuit events could cause equipment damage or unscheduled downtime, and ensure the surrounding components and conductors are rated for 250 V and the applicable amperage.
Yes, the PONC40 fits standard Bussmann series protection schemes and ferrule terminations common in motor control centers and automation panels. Its 40 A rating and 10 kAIC interrupt capability provide reliable protection for motor feeders and control circuits. Before deployment, confirm panel design requirements, wiring gauge compatibility, and any site-specific safety standards to ensure full compliance.
CSA Certification for the PONC40 is Not Applicable, and there are no listed SIL, CE, or IP certifications in the provided data. Documentation available includes the Edison full line catalog, Bussmann Fuseology video, and the Eaton Specification Sheet for PONC40. Use these resources to verify compatibility with your project standards and to guide procurement and installation planning.
The PONC40 provides predictable lifecycle cost through reliable protection, reduced downtime from nuisance trips, and easy stocking with a 10-piece packaging option. Its ferrule Type P design simplifies installations, potentially lowering labor costs, while standardization within the Bussmann series enables consistent replacement parts across facilities. Overall, this can translate to lower maintenance costs and improved panel reliability.
