Value Collection BD-29565 RK5 Time Delay Fuse 7A

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BD-29565 is a cartridge-style, time delay fuse rated at 7 amps and classified RK5 for general-purpose overcurrent protection. The dual-element design absorbs harmless inrush current from motors and transformers while responding quickly to sustained overloads and short circuits. At 2 inches in overall length and 9/16 inches in diameter, this fuse fits standard rejection-style fuseholders that accept RK5 cartridge fuses. Electricians and maintenance technicians install this type of fuse in panelboards, disconnect switches, and motor branch circuits where time delay protection is required.

This fuse is suited for residential and light commercial electrical systems where motor loads, HVAC equipment, and other inductive loads require time delay overcurrent protection. The RK5 class designation means it fits Class R fuseholders with the rejection feature, preventing accidental installation of non-current-limiting fuses in the same holder. Each unit is sold individually, with packaging in quantities of 10.

Key Features

• Dual-element construction absorbs motor startup inrush without nuisance tripping
• RK5 class rating fits standard Class R rejection fuseholders
• 7-amp continuous current rating for small motor and general-purpose branch circuits
• 200 kA interrupting capacity for high fault-current environments
• CSA Certified, UL Listed, and compliant with Federal Specification W-F-1814 QPL and UL 198L

Compatibility

Designed for use in Class R RK5-rated rejection fuseholders in standard cartridge fuse applications for general-purpose branch circuit and motor circuit protection.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. Always de-energize and lock out the circuit before removing or installing any fuse. Use an insulated fuse puller rated for the circuit voltage when handling cartridge fuses. Verify the fuseholder is rated for RK5 class fuses before installation.
