Slotted Cap Fingergrip Shock-Safe Vertical Mount PCB Fuse Holder H3-02 10A 250VAC For 5x20mm Cylindrical Glass Tube Fuse

Why are PCB mounts important ?

Fuses need to be protected because they themselves protect circuits from over current conditions. For example, if a circuit receives too high a level of current, the fuse will burn out, breaking the circuit. With a PCB mount, your fuse is protected and you can easily change it if required.

Applications

- Household appliances
- Medical equipment

Description

PCB mounts, or fuse holders, provide the installation hardware for a fuse. They are used in circuits to contain, protect and mount fuses. They are usually designed so that the wrong fuse cannot be placed in the mount, with a tab preventing accidental misuse.

Types of PCB mounts

PCB mounts come in two basic types, open or fully enclosed. Open PCB mounts include fuse clips, fuse blocks, socket and plug-on cap varieties. The fully enclosed variety may use a fuse carrier that is inserted into a holder or may use other means to fully enclose the fuse.
Both open and enclosed PCB mounts are available with a range of terminal styles including quick disconnect, solder and angled versions.
