    Eaton AHC-500-R 500 mA 600 Vac High Voltage Fast-Acting Ceramic Tube Fuse

    Built by Eaton, the AHC-500-R carries 0.5 A, rated 600 Vac / 600 Vdc, uses a fast-acting element, in a ceramic body.

    Selection Notes

    • Interrupting capability is 10,000 A @ 600 Vac — confirm the circuit's prospective fault current stays below this.
    • Fast element suits resistive and semiconductor loads rather than motors with high inrush.
    • Because it opens within milliseconds, downstream semiconductors see less let-through energy.
    • Ceramic body holds higher breaking capacity than glass at the same footprint.
    • It is the usual choice where prospective fault current is high.
    • Working voltage must stay at or below 600 Vac / 600 Vdc; a lower-rated part is not a safe substitute.
    • Do not upsize beyond 0.5 A to stop nuisance trips — fix the cause instead.

    Typical Applications

    Engineers usually specify it for these duties:

    • EV
    • transformer

    Part Number and Packing

    Order code AHC-500-R from Eaton, supplied in 1/4 x 1-1/4 in (6.3 x 32 mm) ceramic tube, cartridge or axial lead. Confirm the exact suffix before release.

    Q&A

    What are the ratings of the AHC-500-R?

    0.5 A continuous at 600 Vac / 600 Vdc, interrupting rating 10,000 A @ 600 Vac.

    Is the AHC-500-R fast-acting or time-delay?

    It is fast-acting. Expect it to open quickly on overload.

    Can the AHC-500-R be used on a higher fault-current circuit?

    No — its interrupting rating is 10,000 A @ 600 Vac. Choose a part whose breaking capacity exceeds the prospective fault current.
