Fuses & Circuit Breakers

Power surges, power outages and instances in which multiple high-voltage items are being plugged in at the same time can result in damage to electrical systems. Many businesses have employees working with technology throughout the day, which makes it critical that electrical currents are flowing safely and effectively at all times. Fuses and circuit breakers help ensure this protection and are available in a variety of styles to meet the needs of your office or place of business. To check out all of the choices available, browse an array of cleaning supplies and facility supplies.

Cartridge Fuse Protection

Ensure that your technology is always up and running by finding the right fuse. Fuses come in a wide variety of sizes and configurations and are designed to protect against damage from overcurrents. Cartridge fuses feature a cylinder shape with contact points on each end with a filament within the center. Easily removable with a fuse puller, cartridge fuses are ideal for quick fixes.

Variations in Fuses

Aside from cartridge-style fuses, there are also blade- and plug-style fuses that accommodate variations in electrical needs. Blade fuses deliver low-voltage currents and are designed for use in motor vehicles. Plug fuses push into sockets within a panel or board and with proper installation can protect equipment that's connected to residential and industrial branch circuits, so your lights and appliances are always working as they should.

Circuit Breakers

While fuses must be replaced, circuit breakers can be easily reset. Circuit breakers offer a valuable asset to the workplace by halting damaging electrical flows resulting from a short circuit or overcurrent. Ensure that you can keep all necessary forms of technology running properly within your office building with a one-, two- or three-pole configuration, which are ideal for rack distribution cabinets.
