What is a PV fuse holder?
A fuse holder is a holder for electrical and electronic fuses. They are available for different types of fuses such as micro fuses, flat fuses or automotive fuses. A fuse holder is an electromechanical component into which a fuse is inserted. Matching electrical contacts in the fuse holder housing ensure that the fuse conducts electrically during operation and trips in the corresponding event.
How does a fuse holder work?
Fuse holders are adapters for inserting electronic fuses. They are mounted on electronic devices, machines, in fuse boxes and hang from cables. A fuse holder is an electromechanical component. Fuses are mechanically secured in the fuse holder itself. The input and output wires of the fuse are electrically connected to the fuse holder, and the fuse holder has appropriate electrical contacts for inserting the fuse. Fuses can be quickly and easily replaced with the fuse holder. Since the wires go to the fuse holder and not the fuse, you don't have to replace all the solder connections, just the fuse itself.
The correct assembly is decisive
First of all: the connection between the fuse holder and the inserted fuse can always be disconnected to replace the fuse. Finally, easy fuse replacement is a major advantage of using a fuse holder as an adapter between the fuse and the connected circuit. Fuse holder mounting types differ in terms of mounting complexity and durability of mechanical and electrical connections between the fuse holder, components and power cord. We offer you a selection of reliable fuse holders that make installation quite simple.
