The ASO fuse has a quick-acting characteristic according to UL 248-14. It is a standard 10.3x38mm size. Current ratings range from 1 to 30A with a breaking capacity of 20 kA. The fuseholder mounts in a standard 35 mm DIN Rail. A pressure plate connection accepts 8-14 AWG stranded wires or 10-14 AWG solid wires. Units can be ordered in 1-, 2-, or 3-poles. Both ASO and FSO are cURus agency recognized.
