Eaton Bussmann agc-1/4-r Fast-acting Fuse 0.25A 250 Vac

Product Description

The EATON BUSSMANN agc-1/4-r is a fast-acting glass tube fuse in the AGC series, rated at 0.25 amps and 250 Vac (32 Vdc self-certified). Built to the 3AG form factor, this fuse measures 0.25 inches in diameter by 1.25 inches in length and weighs just 0.006 pounds. It is designed to protect low-voltage control circuits, instrumentation, and light electrical loads from overcurrent conditions. Licensed electricians, HVAC technicians, and electronics service professionals install this fuse type in panel boards, control boxes, and inline fuse holders where fast-acting overcurrent protection is required.

The AGC series 3AG glass tube fuse fits a wide range of residential, commercial, and light industrial applications. Common install scenarios include low-voltage control circuits in HVAC equipment, appliance control boards, instrumentation panels, and small transformer secondary circuits. Its fast-acting response characteristic makes it appropriate for circuits without high inrush loads, where immediate interruption on overcurrent is the correct protection strategy.

Key Features

• Fast-acting response — interrupts overcurrent immediately, no intentional delay
• 0.25A current rating for low-current circuit protection
• 250 Vac rating suitable for standard control and instrumentation circuits
• 32 Vdc self-certified rating for DC control circuit applications
• Standard 3AG glass tube body — 0.25 inches diameter by 1.25 inches length
• RoHS compliant construction

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-replacement fast-acting 3AG glass tube fuse for standard AGC-series fuse holders and inline fuse clips rated for the 0.25 inch by 1.25 inch form factor.

Installation Notes

Always de-energize the circuit and confirm zero voltage with a meter before replacing any fuse. This fuse type is installed by licensed electricians or qualified HVAC and instrumentation technicians in accordance with the NEC and applicable local codes. Use a fuse puller when removing from spring-clip holders to avoid glass breakage. Never replace a fuse with a higher-rated substitute — always match the amperage and voltage rating exactly to the original specification.
