FAQs

What type of fuses does this holder use?

This Hella Fuse Holder is designed exclusively for standard ATO (blade) fuses.

What is the maximum electrical rating for this fuse holder?

The fuse holder has a maximum operating voltage of 32V and can handle a current strength of up to 30A.

Is this fuse holder suitable for outdoor or wet environments?

Yes, it features an IP67 rating, which means it is protected against dust ingress and can withstand immersion in water up to 1 meter for 30 minutes, making it splash-water protected.

What is the length of the fuse holder?

The overall length of the Hella Fuse Holder is 227 mm.

What material is the housing made of?

The housing is made of Thermoplast, a durable plastic material, and includes copper elements for conductivity.

Can I use this fuse holder for high-performance audio systems?

It can be used for accessory power in audio systems provided the total current draw of the accessory does not exceed the 30A limit and the system voltage is 32V or less. Always use the appropriate fuse size for the connected equipment.

Troubleshooting

Fuse holder not powering accessory

Ensure the correct ATO fuse is inserted and is not blown. Check that all connections are secure and that the vehicle's power source is active. Verify the fuse holder's maximum voltage and current ratings are not exceeded.

Visible corrosion on terminals

Disconnect power. Clean the terminals with a suitable electrical contact cleaner and a soft brush. Apply a dielectric grease to help prevent future corrosion. If corrosion is severe, consider replacing the fuse holder.

Fuse blows repeatedly

This indicates an electrical fault (e.g., short circuit or overload) in the connected accessory or wiring. Do not replace the fuse with a higher amperage one. Troubleshoot the accessory and wiring for the root cause of the fault.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Identify the circuit requiring protection and determine the appropriate fuse amperage.
  2. Connect the vehicle's power input wire to one terminal of the fuse holder and the accessory's power wire to the other terminal.
  3. Insert the correct ATO fuse into the holder.
  4. Secure the fuse holder in a suitable location, ensuring it is protected from physical damage and excessive vibration.

Care:

  • Periodically inspect the fuse holder for any signs of corrosion or physical damage.
  • Ensure the connections remain clean and secure.
  • Clean the exterior with a damp cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
  • Replace fuses as needed if they blow, troubleshooting the underlying electrical issue first.
