Fluke 440mA 1000V Fuse

Features:

• 440 milliamp, 1000 volt fuse for Fluke digital multimeters
• High-energy and fast-release fuse designed measuring current
• Sand-filled to quickly cut off available oxygen in case of short

When an electrical short occurs while making a current measurement, the user relies upon the high-energy fuse in the test tool for protection. This 440 mA, 1000 V fuse is designed to keep the energy generated within the fuse enclosure, protecting the user from electric shock and burns. To accomplish this, a limited length of time energy is applied as well as the amount of oxygen available for combustion.

The Fluke 440 mA 1000 V high-energy fuse is sand-filled which helps absorb the shock energy created by the current overload. It also controls the potential high temperatures generated (up to 10,000 F). The energy created from an electrical short will melt the sand and turn it to glass, which smothers a potential fireball by quickly cutting off the available oxygen, further protecting the user.
