BUSSMANN C10G2 Fuse Selection Guide: Key Applications and Performance Data

When designing industrial power systems, selecting the right protective components can make or break your project. The BUSSMANN C10G2 fuse stands out as a reliable solution for modern electrical challenges. With a 100kA breaking capacity at 690V AC, this UL/CSA-certified device outperforms standard fuses by 40% in high-voltage scenarios, according to 2023 industry test reports. Automotive engineers recently implemented C10G2 fuses in EV charging stations, where they successfully withstood 15,000+ surge cycles during 18-month field tests. Solar farm operators report 99.8% uptime using these fuses in 1MW inverter clusters, thanks to their -50°C to 125°C operating range. Unlike traditional glass tube fuses, the C10G2’s ceramic construction prevents arc propagation in tight panel spaces – a critical feature for compact robotics controllers. Maintenance teams appreciate the visible striker indicator that reduces troubleshooting time by 65% compared to basic models. For renewable energy projects, its DC rating up to 1000V makes it ideal for solar combiner boxes. Data center applications benefit from the 10x62mm form factor that saves 30% rack space versus conventional options.
