  • Pack of five ensures ready spares

Bussmann GDC-1.6A Glass Fuse 1.60A 250V AC

The Bussmann GDC-1.6A is a cylindrical glass fuse rated 1.60 A at 250 V AC with a 35 A interrupt rating. It suits low-current circuits in equipment that requires a time-delay element to tolerate brief inrush surges. The 5-pack supplies spares for maintenance or multiple identical devices.

Time-delay protection limited to 35 A interrupt

The fuse opens on sustained over-current but rides through short transients thanks to its single-element time-delay design. Its interrupt capacity is capped at 35 A at 250 V AC, so it cannot protect circuits where prospective fault current exceeds that value. The non-rejection body fits standard 5 mm × 20 mm holders without keying.

Replaces Bussmann S506.

This GDC series fuse cross-references Bussmann S506, Littelfuse 218 and Mersen GDG parts, letting you consolidate stock around one UL-recognised, CE-marked reference. The jump is worthwhile when existing holders accept the 5 mm diameter and the application demands a time-delay characteristic rather than fast-acting operation.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 1.60 A glass fuse or a different amp rating?

Select the 1.60 A rating only if your circuit requires exactly that current; the fuse will open at 1.60 A and is rated to interrupt 35 A at 250 V AC.

What does the 35 A interrupt rating mean once the fuse is installed?

It means the fuse can safely break a fault current up to 35 A at 250 V AC without rupturing, protecting the circuit during a short-circuit event.

Is the 250 V AC rating the maximum voltage the GDC series can handle?

Yes, the GDC series is rated for 250 V AC; do not use it in circuits exceeding that voltage.
