Practical Notes
- Interrupting capability is 1,500 A at 250 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 250 Vac; a lower-rated part is not a safe substitute.
- Do not upsize beyond 5 A to stop nuisance trips — fix the cause instead.
Application Scenarios
Common installation contexts include:
- EV
Questions and Answers
What are the ratings of the S501-5-R?
5 A continuous at 250 Vac, interrupting rating 1,500 A at 250 Vac.
Is the S501-5-R fast-acting or time-delay?
It is fast-acting. Expect it to open quickly on overload.
Can the S501-5-R be used on a higher fault-current circuit?
No — its interrupting rating is 1,500 A at 250 Vac. Choose a part whose breaking capacity exceeds the prospective fault current.
