- Ceramic body with dual-element construction for reliable protection
- Pack of four fuses rated 5.60 A for 125 V AC circuits
Product Identity
The Eaton Bussmann T-5-6/10 plug fuse provides 5.60 A time-delay protection for 125 V AC circuits. It suits homeowners and electricians replacing fuses in legacy Edison-base panels. The ceramic body and dual-element design handle temporary motor-start surges without nuisance opening. A four-pack covers multiple circuits or keeps spares on hand.
Installation Check
Verify the existing fuse holder accepts a non-rejection Edison base and that the circuit voltage does not exceed 125 V AC. Confirm the load requires a 5.60 A time-delay rating rather than a fast-acting type. The interrupt rating of 10 kA must meet or exceed the available fault current at the panel. Cross-reference the Bussmann T, Littelfuse TOO or Mersen GT series if substituting brands.
Thermal and Power Behaviour
The ceramic body dissipates heat during sustained overloads while the dual element delays opening on brief inrush currents. Normal operation is silent with no moving parts or fan noise. Power loss across the fuse remains low at rated current and the 10 kA interrupt capacity clears short circuits without arcing damage.

Questions about this item
Does the four-pack include any adapters or tools, or is it just the four plug fuses?
The package contains four T-series indicating time-delay plug fuses only; no adapters, tools or extra hardware are supplied.
How do I decide between the 5.60 A T-series fuses and other ampere ratings in the same series?
Match the fuse rating to the circuit’s design current — use 5.60 A only where the equipment specifies that exact value; otherwise choose the rating marked on the device or in its manual.
What does the 10 kA interrupt rating mean when the fuse is installed in a 125 V AC branch circuit?
It confirms the fuse can safely clear a fault current up to 10 000 amperes at 125 V AC without rupturing, meeting UL 248-11 and CSA Class 1423-01 requirements.
