Eaton REN-10 Fuse - 10 kAIC Time Lag

Part Number: REN-10
Manufacturer
Eaton
Part number
REN-10

Quick Summary

Eaton REN-10 fuse provides time-lag protection for industrial and commercial electrical distributions. Engineers often struggle with selecting fuses that balance nuisance trips and fast clearing for motor loads, leading to downtime. The REN-10 supports a 10 A, 250 V rating with a 10 kAIC interrupt capacity and ferrule-end connections for reliable, field-serviceable protection. Note that the data sheet lists no compliance marks; verify CE, UL, or other regulatory requirements with your local authority and Eaton documentation for your installation. This makes it suitable for standard electrical protection in panels and switchgear while aligning with Bussmann series compatibility and standard installation practices.

Special features
Super lag, time lag, non current-limiting
Time-delay, non current-limiting operation is optimized for inrush-prone loads such as motors and transformers, reducing nuisance trips and downtime while protecting essential equipment. In industrial panels and feeders this translates to smoother starts, improved equipment longevity, and lower maintenance costs. Ferrule-end terminations enable quick, reliable mounting and consistent contact pressure, cutting wiring time and minimizing contact resistance over the fuse’s service life. With a 10 A rating and 10 kAIC interrupt capacity at 250 V, REN-10 delivers robust protection against short-circuit currents, reducing replacement frequency in high-demand environments. The compact form factor (0.56 in wide, 0.56 in depth, 2 in height) and standard packaging (10 per unit) simplify stocking, field replacement, and cabinet planning. The non-indicating status requires external monitoring to confirm health, which can be integrated with existing panel indicators or remote monitoring systems. Class H and Class K5 classifications provide broad compatibility across legacy and modern installations, while ferrule-end connections align with common wiring practices for dependable protection in Bussmann REN fuse applications.

FAQs

To install the REN-10, verify the panel or fuse holder is rated for 250 V and supports ferrule-end fuses. Ensure the ferrule crimp is intact and seated, then insert the fuse into the holder with proper polarity and secure mounting. Confirm there are no interposing components that would impede contact, and test continuity after installation. This approach minimizes contact resistance and ensures reliable operation under normal load and startup inrush.
REN-10 specifications include a 10 A amperage rating, 250 V voltage rating, 10 kAIC interrupt rating, time-delay (time lag), non-current-limiting behavior, ferrule-end connections, and Class H/Class K5 construction. These features make it suitable for motor protection where inrush currents are present but rapid fault clearing is needed, reducing nuisance trips while safeguarding feeders and panels in industrial environments.
Yes, the REN-10 is well-suited for feeders and control panels in industrial and renewable energy contexts where motor drives or transformers generate inrush currents. Its time-delay characteristic accommodates startup surges, while the 10 kAIC interrupt rating provides robust short-circuit protection. For renewables, confirm compatibility with specific inverter or controller protection schemes and ensure the device aligns with project electrical standards.
The provided data lists ā€˜Not Applicable’ for compliances, so no specific certifications are stated. For projects requiring CE, UL, or other regulatory marks, consult Eaton’s documentation or the latest catalog to confirm current approvals. Always verify local electrical codes and customer requirements with the system integrator to ensure the REN-10 meets your compliance needs before deployment.
The REN-10 supports reliable protection with high fault tolerance (10 kAIC) and a time-delay profile that minimizes nuisance trips during motor startup, reducing downtime and maintenance cycles. Its ferrule-end design simplifies replacement and ensures durable connections, while compatibility with Bussmann series aids standardization across spares. Overall, this can lower downtime costs and inventory complexity in panel assemblies and feeders.
