Eaton TCP63A Low Voltage Fuse - IEC 60269 BS88
Part Number: TCP63A
Quick Summary
TCP63A is a low voltage fuse designed for protective circuits in industrial control panels and power distribution. Engineers frequently encounter nuisance trips and the pressure to source UK-compliant fuses with precise ratings. This part, CE marked and RoHS compliant, aligns with BS88 IEC 60269 standards to support safe, maintainable protection. In practice, replacing worn links or coordinating with downstream devices is straightforward, delivering faster changeovers. Core value is improved uptime and regulatory compliance, while staying compatible with British-standard panels and general-purpose protection. Designed for quick sourcing, the TCP63A also simplifies procurement with its catalog data and standard form factor. This combination supports faster design cycles and lower maintenance costs.

FAQs
TCP63A fits standard 23 x 109 mm fuse holders used in UK panels. Ensure the holder is rated for 63 A with AC up to 660 V or DC up to 460 V. Verify gL/gG characteristics for general protection and replace the previous fuse with the same catalog number TCP63A to maintain coordination with BS88 IEC 60269. Use proper PPE, de-energize circuits before replacement, and document the maintenance for regulatory compliance.
Key specs are 63 A current rating, 660 V AC maximum, 460 V DC maximum, and gL/gG fuse type. These enable reliable coordination with downstream devices in standard control circuits, reducing nuisance trips and ensuring selectivity in typical industrial applications. Aligns with BS88 and IEC 60269 requirements to maintain consistent protection across regional equipment sets.
Yes. TCP63A is CE marked and RoHS compliant, and carries IEC BS88 IEC 60269 compatibility along with EAC certification. These certifications support legal use in UK and EU control panels and facilitate cross-regional procurement, traceability, and regulatory adherence for multi-site installations.
Available documentation includes CE/RoHS compliance declarations, IEC BS88 IEC 60269 certification statements, and EAC certification. Eaton also provides DoC documents such as UKCA Redspot fuse-links declarations for regulatory assurance, supporting safe, compliant deployment in diverse markets.
Using TCP63A reduces downtime through reliable protection and compatible form factor, enabling quick replacements with documented catalogs. The CE RoHS and BS88 IEC 60269 certifications streamline procurement and regulatory alignment across sites, contributing to lower total cost of ownership and faster design-to-production cycles for automated lines.
