Littelfuse 0301015.M 15A 32V Glass Cartridge Fuse - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Littelfuse 0301015.M is a 15A 32VAC/VDC glass cartridge fuse in the 1AG form factor (1/4" x 5/8"). This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of active equivalent and substitute parts essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations. The fuse requires a compatible holder for installation and operates within standard industrial and commercial electrical applications requiring fast-blow protection characteristics.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 0301015.M is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

• Current Rating: 15 A (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating - AC: 32 V (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating - DC: 32 V (exact match required)
• Fuse Type: Cartridge, Glass (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 1AG, 1/4" x 5/8" (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Requires Holder (exact match required)

All identified substitutes maintain these electrical and mechanical specifications. Packaging format (individual unit vs. bulk) does not affect electrical compatibility but may impact procurement and inventory considerations.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

0AGA015.V (Littelfuse Inc.) - Parametric equivalent with active product status. Maintains identical electrical specifications and mechanical form factor. RoHS non-compliant status matches the original part. Suitable for direct replacement in existing applications where RoHS compliance is not required.

0AGA015.VP (Littelfuse Inc.) - Parametric equivalent supplied in bulk packaging (5-pack card). Electrically and mechanically identical to the main part. ROHS3 compliant, providing environmental compliance advantage for new designs or applications with RoHS requirements. Packaging format is the primary distinction.

BK/AGA-15 (Eaton - Electronics Division) - Manufacturer-recommended substitute from alternative supplier. Maintains core electrical specifications (15A, 32V AC) and mechanical compatibility. Provides documented breaking capacity (1kA) and fast-blow response time characteristics. RoHS non-compliant. Suitable for applications where cross-manufacturer sourcing is acceptable.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 0AGA015.V directly replace the obsolete 0301015.M? A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical ratings (15A, 32VAC/VDC), fuse type (cartridge, glass), and mechanical dimensions (1AG, 1/4" x 5/8"). The primary difference is product status: 0AGA015.V is active while 0301015.M is obsolete.

Q: What is the difference between 0AGA015.V and 0AGA015.VP? A: Electrical and mechanical specifications are identical. The difference is packaging: 0AGA015.V is supplied as individual units, while 0AGA015.VP is supplied in bulk format (5-pack card). Both are Littelfuse products.

Q: Is the Eaton BK/AGA-15 a suitable cross-manufacturer substitute? A: Yes, for applications where cross-manufacturer sourcing is acceptable. The BK/AGA-15 maintains the required 15A, 32V AC rating and 1AG form factor. It provides additional documented specifications (1kA breaking capacity, fast-blow response) not listed for the original part.

Q: Does RoHS compliance matter for my application? A: RoHS compliance depends on your application requirements and regional regulations. The 0AGA015.VP is ROHS3 compliant, while 0AGA015.V and BK/AGA-15 are RoHS non-compliant. Select based on your specific compliance obligations.

Q: Are all substitutes compatible with the same fuse holder? A: Yes. All substitutes maintain the 1AG, 1/4" x 5/8" mechanical specification, ensuring compatibility with any holder designed for this form factor.

Q: What is the difference between fast-blow and unspecified response time? A: The BK/AGA-15 is documented as fast-blow. The original part and Littelfuse equivalents do not specify response time in the provided data. For applications requiring confirmed fast-blow characteristics, the BK/AGA-15 provides explicit documentation.
