Value Collection BD-998273 Cartridge Fast-acting Fuse 20A 250V

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BD-998273 is a glass-body, fast-acting cartridge fuse rated at 20 amps and 250 volts. Designed for overcurrent protection in low-voltage control circuits, this mini cartridge fuse opens quickly under fault conditions to protect sensitive downstream components. It measures 1.25 inches in overall length and 0.25 inches in diameter, fitting standard fuse holders sized for this form factor. This fuse is sold in a pack of 5. Electricians, HVAC technicians, and panel technicians commonly stock this style for service calls requiring fast-acting protection in control boards, appliances, and light industrial equipment.

This fuse is suited for use in residential and light commercial applications where a fast-acting, mini cartridge fuse is required in a panel-mount or inline fuse holder. Typical applications include low-voltage control circuits, HVAC equipment control boards, small appliance protection, and general electrical distribution panels. The glass body allows for quick visual inspection to confirm fuse condition without removing it from the holder, which is useful during service diagnostics.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician or licensed HVAC technician in accordance with NEC guidelines. Always de-energize the circuit and verify absence of voltage before replacing any fuse. Confirm the replacement fuse matches the original amperage and voltage rating exactly — installing a fuse with a higher rating than specified can void equipment protection and create a fire hazard. Seat the fuse firmly in the holder contacts to ensure reliable continuity.
