RK5 Fuses

RK5 fuses are time-delay, current-limiting fuses that provide overcurrent protection by interrupting excessive electrical flow from overloads and short circuits. They have a moderate interrupting rating and are designed to handle temporary surges, making them ideal for motor circuits and transformers. Commonly used in industrial, commercial, and residential electrical systems, RK5 fuses are valued for their ability to protect a wide range of applications with effective and dependable performance. LiveWire Electrical Supply carries a range of RK5 fuses, including fast-acting, time-delay, and specialty fuses from Bussmann.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the key features of RK5 fuses?

RK5 fuses are time-delay, current-limiting fuses that provide reliable protection against both overloads and short circuits. They have a moderate interrupting rating and are designed to allow temporary overloads, such as motor startups, without blowing.

What applications are RK5 fuses typically used in?

They are commonly used in motor circuits, transformers, lighting circuits, and general-purpose branch circuits in industrial, commercial, and residential settings.

How do RK5 fuses differ from RK1 fuses?

RK5 fuses have a slower response time compared to RK1 fuses, making them suitable for applications where temporary surges are common. RK1 fuses provide faster protection and are used in applications requiring quicker response times.

What voltage and current ratings are available for RK5 fuses?

RK5 fuses are available in a range of voltage ratings up to 600 volts and current ratings from a few amperes to several hundred amperes.

How do you select the appropriate RK5 fuse for a specific application?

Selection depends on the voltage, current, and specific protection needs of the circuit or equipment, including the type of load and potential fault conditions.
