What this fuse protects
The Bussmann T-20 is a 20A time-delay plug fuse rated for 125V AC circuits with a 10kA interrupt rating. It suits residential and light-commercial panels that use Edison-base fuse holders. The dual-element ceramic body handles temporary motor-start surges without nuisance opening. The indicating window shows at a glance whether the element has blown.
Capacity and headroom
Each fuse carries a continuous 20A load and will clear a 10kA short circuit at 125V AC. The time-delay characteristic gives headroom for brief inrush currents typical of small compressors or pumps. It runs out when sustained current exceeds 20A or when the available fault current surpasses the 10kA rating. Four fuses come in the pack for multi-circuit spares.
The deciding specification
The critical figure is the 10kA interrupt rating at 125V AC. If the panel’s available fault current is higher, this fuse cannot safely clear the fault and a higher-rated device is required. The non-rejection Edison base fits standard sockets but offers no rejection feature against over-fusing. Verify the panel’s fault-current level before specifying this part.

Questions about this item
Will the 20 A time-delay characteristic protect my older 125 V motor circuits without nuisance blows?
The dual-element design provides a time-delay that rides through brief motor-start surges while still interrupting at 10 kA if a genuine fault occurs.
How can I confirm the fuse has operated after a fault event?
The indicating window shows a visible colour change once the element has melted, so you can see at a glance which fuse needs replacement.
Does the four-pack include any fuse adapters or bases, or must they be purchased separately?
Only the four plug-style fuses are supplied; Edison-base adapters or fuse blocks are sold separately.
