Value Collection BD-29729 Cartridge Time Delay Fuse 5A 250V

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BD-29729 is a cartridge-style, time delay fuse rated at 5 amps and 250 volts with a 10 kA interrupting rating at AC. It measures 1.5 inches in overall length and 13/32 inches in diameter, fitting standard cartridge fuse holders used across HVAC, electrical, and industrial panel applications. The time delay characteristic allows short-duration inrush currents to pass without nuisance opening, while still protecting downstream components from sustained overcurrent faults. Electricians and HVAC technicians install this type of fuse when protecting motors, transformers, and control circuits that draw higher current on startup than during normal operation.

This fuse is suited for use in residential and light commercial electrical panels, HVAC control circuits, and equipment requiring overload protection with time delay performance. The 250V rating covers a wide range of single-phase branch circuit and low-voltage control applications. The cartridge plug form factor fits into standard ferrule-type fuse holders commonly found in disconnect blocks, pull-out fuse holders, and fused junction boxes. CSA Certified and UL Listed, it meets the compliance requirements for permitted electrical work under NEC-governed installations.

Key Features

• Time delay design tolerates motor and transformer inrush currents without nuisance tripping
• 5 amp rating for low-current branch circuit and control circuit protection
• 250V AC voltage rating for single-phase applications
• 10 kA interrupting rating at AC for fault current protection
• Cartridge plug body fits standard ferrule-type fuse holders
• CSA Certified and UL Listed for code-compliant installations

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement for standard 13/32 inches diameter by 1.5 inches ferrule cartridge fuse holders rated at 250V, as commonly found in HVAC control panels, disconnect blocks, and fused electrical equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified HVAC technician. De-energize the circuit and verify zero voltage with a meter before removing or installing any fuse. Use an appropriately rated fuse puller to remove and seat the cartridge without contact to live conductors. Verify the replacement fuse amperage and voltage ratings match the equipment nameplate requirements before closing the disconnect or panel cover.
