Cooper Bussmann AGC-10-R Fast-acting Cartridge Fuse 10A

Product Description

The COOPER BUSSMANN AGC-10-R is a glass-body cartridge fuse rated at 10 amps with fast-acting response characteristics. It measures 1.25 inches in overall length and 0.25 inches in diameter, fitting the standard AGC mini fuse footprint found across a wide range of low-voltage control circuits and electronic equipment. Fast-acting fuses like the AGC-10-R open quickly on overcurrent events, providing precise protection for sensitive components that cannot tolerate even brief overloads. Electricians, HVAC technicians, and electronics service professionals install this fuse type in control boards, instruments, appliances, and secondary circuits where rapid fault clearing is required.

The AGC-10-R is suited for residential and light commercial applications wherever a standard 1/4-inch by 1-1/4-inch fast-acting glass cartridge fuse is specified. Common install scenarios include HVAC control panels, small appliance protection circuits, test and measurement instruments, and low-voltage accessory wiring. The glass body allows visual inspection for a blown element without removing the fuse from the holder, which speeds up troubleshooting on service calls.

Key Features

• Fast-acting fuse timing for immediate overcurrent response on sensitive circuits
• Glass cartridge body enables visual inspection of the fuse element in place
• Standard AGC mini form factor: 1.25 inches OAL by 0.25 inches diameter
• UL Listed (Guide JDYX, File E19180) and CSA Certified (Class 1422-01, File 053787)
• RoHS compliant construction
• Meets MIL-STD-202 Method 204 and Method 207 HI Shock test requirements

Compatibility

Designed as a direct replacement for standard AGC-series mini cartridge fuse positions rated at 10 amps in panel-mount, inline, and PCB fuse holders accepting the 1/4-inch by 1-1/4-inch form factor.

Installation Notes

De-energize the circuit completely before replacing any fuse. Verify the replacement fuse rating matches the circuit specification exactly — substituting a higher-amperage fuse can damage downstream components and create a fire hazard. Use an appropriate fuse puller or insulated tool when removing the fuse from a panel-mount or inline holder. Work performed on electrical control systems should conform to applicable NEC requirements and local codes.
