Eaton RES-15 Fuse - Class H, Time Lag - 10 kAIC
Part Number: RES-15
Quick Summary
The Eaton RES-15 fuse provides time-lag protection for industrial and commercial electrical systems. Choosing the wrong fuse leads to nuisance trips, downtime, and inadequate short-circuit tolerance in critical equipment. Certifications such as CE or IP ratings are not listed for this part; confirm local compliance requirements before deployment. This Bussmann series RES-15 offers a 15 A rating, Class H construction, ferrule-end connections, and a 10 kAIC interrupt rating at 250 Vac, with a 600 V rating overall. Using this fuse supports safer, more reliable protection while helping maintenance teams reduce unexpected outages and spare parts costs. In practice, it pairs well with panel boards, motor circuits, and power distribution where time-delay protection matters.

Eaton Specification Sheet - RES-15
Feature → Business Impact → Application: Time-lag design provides inrush tolerance for motor loads and equipment with brief startup surges, reducing nuisance trips and unplanned downtime in control panels and distribution panels. This translates to measurable uptime gains and lower maintenance costs, especially in manufacturing and processing environments. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 15 A rating paired with a 10 kAIC interrupt rating at 250 Vac and 600 V operating voltage enables safe, reliable protection across transformer feeders and line circuits without oversizing, improving protection coordination in electrical rooms and switchgear. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Ferrule end x ferrule end connections simplify field installation with consistent crimp termination, speeding cabinet wiring and reducing the risk of loose-terminal faults in industrial automation setups. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Non-indicating design minimizes visual clutter in crowded panels while allowing technicians to rely on diagnostic systems and replacement strategy for ongoing maintenance. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Standard packaging and compact form factor (5 in length, 0.81 in width and height, 0.18 lb) support tight panel layouts in control cabinets, reducing enclosure footprint and material costs. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Class H timing and construction deliver predictable protection for controllable loads like conveyors and pumps, aligning with safety and compliance objectives while supporting preventive maintenance programs. This fuse also integrates smoothly with Bussmann series catalogs and datasheets for easy ordering and cross-reference. Industry context: In electrical protection design for industrial environments, selecting properly rated time-delay fuses like RES-15 improves reliability, saves energy, and minimizes downtime during peak demand or inrush events. Risk mitigation is enhanced when engineers coordinate with upstream protection schemes and motor starter protections, ensuring coordinated discrimination and faster fault isolation.

FAQs
RES-15 uses ferrule-end terminations on both ends, designed for standard ferrule crimps. This enables consistent, secure connections in control panels and distribution boards and reduces the risk of loose-term faults during service.
The 10 kAIC interrupt rating at 250 Vac indicates the fuse can safely interrupt high fault currents up to 10,000 amperes at 250 Vac, aiding safe fault clearance and protecting downstream equipment from catastrophic damage in industrial circuits.
Yes. RES-15 is rated for 600 V and is explicitly appropriate for motor control panels, power distribution, and related industrial applications where time-delay protection and inrush tolerance are required.
Class H indicates a Bussmann time-delay fuse construction optimized for inrush loads. It provides reliable protection against short circuits while tolerating momentary surges typical of motors and heavy equipment.
