Eaton BP/FNM-2 Time Delay Cartridge Fuse 2A 2-pack

Product Description

The EATON BP/FNM-2 is a Fusetron FNM-series time delay cartridge fuse sold as a 2-pack, rated at 2 amps. It is designed for general-purpose branch circuit protection in applications where high inrush current is present at startup. The time delay characteristic allows normal motor startup surges to pass without nuisance opening, while still responding to sustained overload conditions before damage occurs. Licensed electricians and pool service technicians install this fuse type in control panels, disconnect boxes, and equipment circuits where both overload and short-circuit protection are required.

This fuse is suited for residential and commercial circuits serving equipment with high inrush demands. Typical applications include spa control panels, pool pump circuits, and other motor-driven commercial equipment. The FNM series is a midget-style cartridge fuse commonly found in fuse holders and pull-out fuse blocks inside equipment enclosures and load centers. The 2-amp rating targets low-current motor branch circuits where nuisance tripping from startup surges is a routine service issue.

Key Features

• Time delay design passes normal motor startup inrush without opening
• Opens on sustained overloads before motor or equipment damage occurs
• Rated at 2 amps for low-current motor and equipment circuits
• FNM midget cartridge form factor fits standard fuse holders and pull-out blocks
• UL listed for general-purpose branch circuit protection
• Sold as a 2-pack for stocking convenience

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for FNM-series midget cartridge fuse holders used in spa, pool pump, and general commercial motor equipment circuits requiring a 2-amp time delay fuse.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC requirements for overcurrent protection. Always de-energize and lockout/tagout the circuit before replacing fuses. Verify the fuse holder accepts the FNM midget cartridge form factor and that the 2-amp rating matches the circuit protection requirements before installing. Do not substitute a higher-rated fuse to resolve nuisance opening without first diagnosing the underlying inrush or overload condition.
