Bussmann FLM-80 fuse is often used in vehicles' electrical systems to protect the internal components from current fluctuations and overcurrents.
Working Mechanism:
- Bussman FLM-80 fuse is placed in series with the circuit.
- When the current flowing through the circuit exceeds the fuse's rated value, the fuse will blow to interrupt the circuit.
- This explosion shields components from damage or a fire caused by excessive current.
Features:
- Bussmann FLM-80 fuse has screw-type connectors and male termination ends.
- It has plastic housing to insulate nearby electric components from the current.
- This non-indicating fuse has a viewing window to verify the fuse link status.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. What is the current rating of this fuse?
A. Bussman FLM-80 fuse has a current rating of 80A. However, if you require a high-rating fuse, you can go for Bussmann FLM-100 fuse that has a current rating of 100A.
Q. Why do fuse links blow?
A. Fuse links blow (melt) when the current flowing through the circuit exceeds their rated current. This can happen due to a short circuit, a malfunctioning component, or an overload in the circuit.
Q. How do I replace a blown fuse link?
A.
- To replace a blown fuse link, locate the fuse box where the fuse is located.
- Use Bussmann fuse pullers to remove the blown fuse.
- Replace it with a new one of the same rating.
