Cooper Bussmann BP/AGC-1/2-RP Agc Glass Fuse 0.5A 5 Pack

Product Description

The COOPER BUSSMANN BP/AGC-1/2-RP is a fast-acting AGC-style glass tube fuse rated at 0.5 amps and 250 volts, sold in a carded retail pack of five. AGC fuses are cylindrical glass-body fuses commonly used in electronic control circuits, low-current branch circuits, and instrument protection applications. The fast-acting element responds quickly to overcurrent events, protecting sensitive electronic components from sustained fault current. This package format is well suited for service vehicles and shop stock where keeping spare fuses on hand is standard practice.

AGC glass tube fuses of this amperage are used across a wide range of light commercial and residential equipment, including HVAC control boards, thermostat transformers, electronic ignition modules, and general-purpose control panel circuits. Electricians and HVAC technicians install them during routine service calls or when troubleshooting blown-fuse faults in low-voltage or line-voltage electronic circuits. The 0.5A rating makes this appropriate for circuits with minimal continuous load where precise overcurrent protection is required.

Key Features

• Fast-acting fuse element for rapid response to overcurrent conditions
• AGC glass tube body allows visual inspection of fuse element without removal
• Rated 250 volts for compatibility with standard control and line-voltage circuits
• 0.5A current rating suits low-current electronic and control circuit protection
• Pack of five supports stocking service kits and reducing callback trips

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for standard AGC-style glass tube fuse holders accepting the common cylindrical glass fuse format used in electronic control and low-current circuit applications.

Installation Notes

AGC fuses are installed by licensed electricians or qualified HVAC technicians following applicable NEC guidelines for fuse replacement. Always de-energize and lock out the circuit before removing or installing a fuse. Replace only with a fuse of the same type, amperage, and voltage rating. Investigate and resolve the root cause of any blown fuse before returning the circuit to service.
