A4BY (Class L)
Count on the high interrupting rating
of our most widely-used class L fuse
When it comes to protecting service entrance equip-
ment, feeder circuits, and circuit breakers, A4BY fuses
have been the industry’s favorite. The A4BY is a 100%
rated device and may be applied at continuous cur-
rents up to its ampere rating. A 4-second minimum
time delay at 500% rating allows the A4BY to pass nor-
mal current surges and to coordinate
with ground fault relays.
