Eaton Cartridge Fuse 45A 240V AC Ceramic Body 17 x 35 mm Bussmann Series C4545

The Eaton C4545 is a high-performance cartridge fuse engineered for robust overcurrent protection in consumer and industrial electrical installations. With a 45A rating and 240V AC compatibility, this fuse is tailored for mains systems where reliable fault interruption and circuit protection are critical. The Bussmann Series design ensures conformity with UK and international fuse standards, making it ideal for distribution panels and equipment protection.

The fuse is constructed with a cylindrical ceramic body, offering superior heat resistance and mechanical strength during high-current events. Its 17 x 35 mm dimension facilitates seamless integration into existing BS1361-format fuse holders, ensuring ease of replacement and installation in standard electrical panels.

Application category gL/gG allows the fuse to safeguard both conductors and equipment, providing broad utility in cable protection and branch circuit safety. An impressive breaking capacity of 16.5 kA means the fuse can effectively interrupt hazardous fault currents, minimizing energy transfer and damage during electrical anomalies.

Common use cases include consumer distribution units, power feeders in residential and commercial environments, and industrial panels requiring reliable BS-format fuses. Its design supports general-purpose circuit protection and is suitable for installations where performance, longevity, and compliance with standards are necessary.

While there is no built-in striker or actuating indicator, the Eaton C4545 can be paired with external status indication devices for efficient blown-fuse identification. The ceramic construction ensures the fuse maintains integrity under stress, contributing to operational safety and equipment protection.
