Bussmann NTS-R-60 Dummy Fuse

Safe Placeholder for Fuse Holders

Overview

The Bussmann NTS-R-60 Dummy Fuse is a non-conductive safety component designed to occupy empty fuse sockets without completing an electrical circuit. Unlike functional fuses, it provides zero electrical connectivity, serving purely as a physical placeholder to prevent accidental contact with live terminals. Ideal for maintenance, testing, and panel organization.

Key Features

• Safety Assurance: Prevents accidental short circuits or contact hazards by blocking access to live terminals in unoccupied fuse holders.
• Easy Identification: Bright red casing with clear “DUMMY” labeling ensures visual distinction from operational fuses.
• Secure Fit: Precision-engineered to match the dimensions of Bussmann NTS-R series fuse holders (compatible with 60A socket sizes).
• Durable Construction: Flame-retardant thermoplastic housing resists heat, vibration, and industrial environmental stress.
• Tool-Free Installation: Snap-in design for quick, hassle-free placement or removal.

Applications

• Filling unused slots in fuse panels, switchgear, or power distribution units (PDUs)
• Maintenance workflows requiring temporary circuit isolation
• Preventing debris accumulation in open fuse holders
• Training demonstrations and electrical safety education

⚠️ Critical Note:
This unit provides NO overcurrent protection. Never substitute for a live fuse in an operational circuit. Use exclusively as a passive placeholder.
