Q&A

 

Q: What is the point of the 6000A breaking resistance of Plug Fuse BS1362?
A: To avoid fire risks by ensuring the circuit is turned off quickly in case of a fault.

Q: How do I make Plug Fuse BS1362 fit with the BS 1363 plug?
A: Plug Fuse BS1362 should directly connect to a normal British plug and meet 3A/5A/13A standards.

Q: Can Plug Fuse BS1362 be used in other places with plugs that aren't British?
A: Plug Fuse BS1362 was made to work with British plugs (BS 1363), but its size and electrical specs don't work with plugs from other countries, like those in Europe (CEE 7) or the United States (NEMA). If you need to change to a different standard plug, check the equipment manual for the fuse spec requirements or contact us for custom options.
