Fuse holder refers to the base on which the fuse is installed. Fuse holders can be divided into dust-proof fuse holders, circuit patch fuse holders, horizontal fuse holders, lead fuse holders, line fuse holders, vertical fuse holders, waterproof fuse holders, car fuse holders, wiring harness fuse holders and so on.

Common types of fuse holders:

Divide by fuse scale

It can be divided into large fuse holder, medium fuse holder and small fuse holder. Different electrical appliances use different currents, and the use of fuses of different sizes can have different current isolation effects. The scale of natural fuses of different specifications will be different. For this, we have the three types of fuse holders mentioned above.

By device type

There are two types of fuse sockets and fuse sockets. As you can tell from the name, the fuse socket is a tubular fuse holder, which will be first erected during installation. The fuse holder is mounted by the method of chip mounting.

Differentiate by material

There are two kinds of plastic fuse holders and bakelite fuse holders, which are widely used in our daily life. As the literal meaning is, fuse holders use different materials and are used in different scenarios.

The function of the fuse holder:

Has a bearing function

At the beginning we mentioned that the fuse holder is an accessory for placing the fuse. Arrange the various fuses on the fuse holder in a certain order so as not to disrupt the function of each fuse. At the same time, the special place where the fuse is placed provides a considerable convenience for the discovery and maintenance of subsequent problems. Therefore, we can say that the fuse holder has the function of bearing, which is convenient for subsequent use and maintenance.

With maintenance function

The main function of the fuse holder is the maintenance function, which plays a certain role when it is necessary to maintain electrical appliances and fuses. Generally speaking, the rated current of the fuse is higher than the current of the normal use of our electrical appliances, and it also has a certain overload capacity. However, if our current margin is too large, it will cause the protection of the fuse. At this time, the fuse holder has a maintenance effect and acts as a fuse.
