Cooper Bussmann BP/T-10 Type T Plug Fuse 10A 5 Pack

Product Description

The COOPER BUSSMANN BP/T-10 is a 10-amp Type T time-delay plug fuse designed for residential and light commercial electrical service panels and fused disconnect boxes. The time-delay (Fusetron) design tolerates brief inrush currents from motors and other inductive loads without nuisance opening, while still providing reliable short-circuit and overload protection. This fuse is sold in a carded 5-pack, making it a practical choice for technicians who service multiple units or want to keep spares on hand. Installation is straightforward for licensed electricians and HVAC service technicians working on equipment that uses Edison-base fuse panels.

Type T plug fuses are commonly installed in older residential fuse boxes and fused service entrance equipment where Edison-base or rejection-base fusing is specified. The time-delay characteristic makes the BP/T-10 well suited for circuits powering motors, compressors, and other loads that draw elevated startup current. It is appropriate for circuits rated up to 10 amps where a Type T classification is required by the panel or local electrical code.

Key Features

• 10-amp time-delay rating tolerates motor inrush current without nuisance trips
• Type T plug fuse classification for use in Type T rejection-base fuse holders
• Fusetron time-delay element provides two-level protection: overload and short circuit
• Carded 5-pack format keeps replacement stock organized on the service truck
• Package dimensions: 4.75 inches L x 4.76 inches W x 4.77 inches H

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for residential and light commercial fuse panels and fused disconnects that accept Type T Edison-base plug fuses rated at 10 amps.

Installation Notes

Type T plug fuses are installed by licensed electricians or qualified HVAC technicians. Always shut off power to the panel or fused disconnect at the upstream breaker or main disconnect before removing or installing any fuse. Verify the replacement fuse amperage and classification match the circuit requirements and panel labeling before energizing. Work on fused service equipment must comply with applicable NEC requirements and local electrical codes.
