Cooper Bussmann AGX-15 Cartridge Fast-acting Fuse 15A

Product Description

The COOPER BUSSMANN AGX-15 is a glass-body cartridge fast-acting fuse rated at 15 amps, designed for overcurrent protection in low-voltage control circuits, instrumentation panels, and light electrical equipment. Measuring 1 inch in overall length and 1/4 inch in diameter, this mini-style cartridge fuse responds immediately to overload conditions without intentional time delay, making it appropriate for circuits where fast disconnection is required to protect sensitive downstream components. It carries an interrupting rating of 1000 amps at 32 volts and 200 amps at 250/125 volts. Electricians and controls technicians install this fuse in fuse holders sized for the standard AGX form factor.

The AGX-15 is commonly used in residential and light commercial applications including HVAC control boards, appliance panels, machine tool circuits, and instrumentation enclosures. Its compact glass cartridge form factor fits standard mini fuse holders found throughout legacy and current control panel designs. The fast-acting response characteristic makes it well-suited for resistive and lightly inductive loads where a time-delay fuse would provide no protective advantage.

Key Features

• Fast-acting fuse response for immediate overcurrent disconnection
• 15-amp rating suits light control and instrumentation circuits
• Glass body construction allows visual inspection of the fuse element without removal
• Compact mini cartridge form factor: 1 inch OAL, 1/4 inch diameter
• Interrupting rating of 1000 amps at 32 volts and 200 amps at 250/125 volts
• UL Listed 248-14 and CSA Component Accepted for code-compliant installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement fuse for standard mini cartridge fuse holders accepting a 1-inch by 1/4-inch AGX-series fuse element.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician or controls technician. De-energize and lock out the circuit before replacing any fuse. Verify that the replacement fuse amperage and voltage ratings match the circuit requirements exactly — never substitute a higher-amperage fuse to address a repeated blowing condition without first diagnosing the underlying fault. Follow applicable NEC requirements for overcurrent protection and fuse holder ratings.
