Eaton BP/MDL-6 Mdl Glass Tube Time-delay Fuse 6A 2-pack

Product Description

The EATON BP/MDL-6 is a time-delay (slow-blow) MDL-style glass tube fuse rated at 6 amps, sold in a 2-pack. Time-delay fuses are designed to tolerate brief inrush currents without nuisance blowing, making them the correct choice for loads that draw a surge at startup before settling to steady-state current draw. The fuse body measures 1.25 inches in length and 0.25 inches in diameter, conforming to the standard MDL form factor. This fuse is UL Listed, confirming it has been evaluated to applicable safety standards for use in electronic equipment circuits.

The BP/MDL-6 is commonly used in computers, satellite dishes, and office equipment where a slow-blow fuse is required to handle momentary inrush without opening the circuit prematurely. It is appropriate for low-voltage electronic control circuits found in residential and light commercial applications. Electricians and electronics technicians install this fuse as a direct replacement in equipment fuse holders that accept the standard 1.25-inch by 0.25-inch MDL glass tube format.

Installation Notes

This fuse should be installed by a qualified electrician or electronics technician following applicable NEC guidelines. Always de-energize and unplug the equipment before replacing any fuse. Verify that the replacement fuse matches the original amperage rating and time-delay characteristic specified on the equipment nameplate or service documentation. Never substitute a higher-rated fuse or a fast-blow fuse where a time-delay type is specified.
