Value Collection BD998236 Time Delay Blade Fuse 80A 10 Pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BD998236 is a general purpose time delay blade fuse rated at 80 amps, designed for plug-in mount installations. The time delay characteristic allows brief, harmless inrush currents to pass without nuisance tripping, while still protecting circuits against sustained overloads and fault conditions. The tan-colored body follows standard automotive and general-purpose blade fuse color coding for quick visual identification at amperage. The indicating feature provides a visual cue when the fuse has opened, speeding up diagnostics during service calls. Electricians and technicians install this fuse in fuse blocks, panels, and equipment requiring blade-style overcurrent protection.

This fuse is suited for general purpose electrical applications where a plug-in blade mount is required. Typical installations include control panels, HVAC equipment wiring harnesses, power distribution blocks, and other systems that draw steady loads with acceptable startup inrush. The time delay rating makes it appropriate for motor circuits and other inductive loads common in residential and light commercial electrical systems. Sold in a pack of 10, this fuse is practical for stocking service vans or facility maintenance supplies.

Key Features

• Time delay fuse element tolerates short-duration inrush currents without nuisance tripping
• 80A amperage rating for high-current general purpose circuit protection
• Blade body type with plug-in mount for tool-free installation in compatible fuse blocks
• Indicating design provides visible confirmation of a blown fuse for faster troubleshooting
• Tan color-coded body for fast amperage identification at a glance
• Sold in a 10-pack for convenient stocking and serviceability

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for general purpose plug-in blade fuse applications requiring an 80A time delay rating.

Installation Notes

Installation of this fuse should be performed by a qualified electrician or trained technician in accordance with NEC guidelines. Always de-energize and lock out the circuit before removing or installing a fuse. Confirm the fuse block or holder is rated for the blade fuse body type and the 80A current rating before installation. Do not substitute a higher-amperage fuse to replace a blown unit, as this defeats overcurrent protection.
