Bussmann BP/ATC-3-RP Automotive Blade Fuse 3A 250V

Product Description

The BUSSMANN BP/ATC-3-RP is a 3 amp, 250 volt ATC-style automotive blade fuse rated for through-hole mount applications. It provides overcurrent and short-circuit protection for low-voltage electrical circuits in automotive and light commercial settings. The fuse body offers clear visibility for quick visual inspection without removal. Licensed electricians, automotive technicians, and HVAC service professionals install this type of fuse to protect sensitive control circuits, blower motors, and accessory wiring from damage caused by surges and overloads.

This fuse is suited for use in passenger vehicles, trucks, and HVAC equipment where standard ATC blade fuse holders and panels are installed. The 3 amp rating makes it appropriate for low-current control circuits, including HVAC low-voltage wiring and automotive accessory circuits. It fits standard ATC-format fuse blocks commonly found in both vehicular and equipment control panel applications.

Key Features

• 3 amp rating provides precise overcurrent protection for low-current circuits
• 250 volt rating suitable for automotive and light commercial low-voltage systems
• ATC blade-style form factor fits standard fuse holders and panels
• Through-hole mount design allows secure, straightforward installation
• Clear fuse body enables visual inspection without tools
• Compatible with standard automotive fuse pullers for safe removal and replacement

Compatibility

Designed as a direct replacement for standard 3 amp ATC blade fuses used in automotive fuse blocks and HVAC control panel fuse holders that accept ATC-format fuses.

Installation Notes

Automotive technicians and HVAC technicians typically install ATC blade fuses. Always disconnect or power down the circuit before removing or installing a fuse to prevent arcing or accidental short circuits. Use an automotive fuse puller when removing the fuse from a loaded holder to avoid contact with live terminals. Verify the replacement fuse amp rating matches the circuit requirements before installation.
