Cooper Bussmann BP/FRS-R-60 60A 600V Time Delay Fuse

Product Description

The COOPER BUSSMANN BP/FRS-R-60 is a 60-amp, 600-volt time-delay cartridge fuse of the FRS-R Fusetron type. It is designed to protect motors, motor branch circuits, and other inductive loads from overcurrent conditions. The time-delay action allows motors to start without nuisance tripping while still providing reliable fault protection. Rated at 60 amps with a 600-volt maximum, it measures 5.5 inches in length and 0.81 inches in diameter. Licensed electricians and industrial maintenance technicians install this fuse in fusible disconnect switches and motor control panels.

This fuse is suited for residential, commercial, and light industrial motor circuit protection. Its time-delay characteristic makes it particularly appropriate for HVAC compressor circuits, pump motor circuits, and other applications where high inrush current at startup would cause a standard fuse to open prematurely. It is sold in a carded retail pack of 5 units per package, making it practical for service vans and field inventory.

Key Features

• 60-amp continuous current rating with 600-volt maximum rating
• Time-delay action tolerates motor inrush current without nuisance tripping
• FRS-R Fusetron cartridge form factor for fusible disconnect switches

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement cartridge fuse for Class RK5 fusible disconnect switches and motor branch circuit protection panels accepting 60-amp, 600-volt time-delay fuses.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a qualified electrician following applicable NEC requirements for motor branch circuit protection. Always open and lock out the disconnect switch and verify the circuit is de-energized with a meter before removing or installing fuses. Use an insulated fuse puller appropriate for the fuse size. Confirm that the replacement fuse rating matches the disconnect switch and load requirements before energizing the circuit.
