General Information:
• Use in power electronic circuits in which a fuse opening must
be quickly apparent.
• Opening of fuse results in the ejection of end pin.
• Type GLD has an albaloy-plated pin for positive, electrical
signal circuit activation.
• Type GBA has a red pin for high visibility.
• The Buss Series 8000 fuseblocks are recommended for
visual indication.
• For visual indication use Buss panel-mounted fuseholder HLD
(15A maximum); for lamp indicating, HKA (15A maximum).
• Body material: Fibre tube.
• Ferrule plating: Nickel plated endcaps.
• Ferrule material: Brass
