HAGERS Cartridge Fuse
A HAGERS Cartridge Fuse is a replaceable safety device used in electrical circuits to protect equipment from overloads and short circuits. They are contained within a cylindrical or rectangular cartridge made of insulating material and contain a fusible element that melts or vaporizes when excessive current flows through it.
Description
Key features of HAGERS Cartridge Fuses:
- Overload and short circuit protection: Interrupt the circuit when the current exceeds the rated capacity of the fuse, preventing damage to connected equipment.
- Variety of ratings: Available in various current ratings to suit diverse applications and provide appropriate protection for different circuit loads.
- Color-coded identification: Often employ a color-coded system to easily identify their current rating.
- Compact size: Designed for space-efficient installation within fuse carriers and enclosures.
- Easy replacement: Allow for quick and convenient replacement when blown, minimizing downtime.
Applications of HAGERS Cartridge Fuses:
- Distribution boards: Used to protect individual circuits within distribution boards, safeguarding electrical systems from potential damage.
- Motor circuits: Employed to protect motors from overloads and short circuits, ensuring their safe operation.
- Industrial applications: Widely utilized in various industrial settings to safeguard equipment and ensure reliable operation.
Important considerations:
- **Always replace a blown fuse with the same type and rating. Using an incorrect fuse can compromise safety and increase the risk of electrical hazards.
- Only qualified electricians should handle electrical work, including installation, maintenance, and replacement of fuses.
HAGERS Cartridge Fuses, in conjunction with HAGERS Fuse Carriers, offer a reliable and efficient solution for protecting electrical circuits and equipment from potential damage caused by overloads and short circuits.

HAGERS Isolating Switches
HAGERS Isolating Switches, also known as disconnectors or isolators, are electrical devices designed to completely disconnect a circuit from the power source. They are not intended for regular on/off switching and are primarily used for:
- Maintenance and isolation: Isolating portions of a circuit for safe maintenance or repair work.
- Safety: Providing a visible and physical disconnect point for emergency situations or equipment de-energization.
- Metering: Allowing for safe meter removal or access for reading purposes.
