6-1/4a Bp/t Time-delay Plug Fuse

The Cooper Bussmann BP/T-6-1/4 is a time-delay plug fuse designed for circuits where motors frequently start and stop. This fuse uses a dual-element design: a simple link element that opens instantly on short circuits and dangerous overloads, combined with a series-connected element that allows the harmless inrush starting currents of motors to pass through without nuisance tripping. This makes it ideal for motor-driven loads and appliances that draw temporary surge current during startup.

Plug fuses are essential protective devices in electrical panels and enclosures. The Type T time-delay characteristic prevents false trips from normal motor starting while still providing reliable protection against genuine electrical faults. The compact form factor makes this fuse suitable for confined electrical enclosures where space is at a premium, and the Edison base design fits most standard fuse holders for easy installation and replacement.

Features and Benefits

• Time-Delay (Slow-Blow) Design: Tolerates temporary inrush currents from motor startup without opening, while instantly protecting against sustained overloads and short circuits.
• Dual-Element Protection: Link element handles short circuits and dangerous overloads; series-connected element passes harmless motor starting currents.
• Type T Plug Fuse: Fits standard Edison base fuse holders in most residential and commercial electrical panels.
• Compact Form Factor: Ideal for crowded electrical enclosures where space is limited.
• Precise 6.25 A Rating: Calibrated to protect circuits rated for 6-amp loads, ensuring accurate overload detection.
