Littelfuse 0617010.MXP Glass Cartridge Fuse 10A 250VAC 5x20mm Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Littelfuse 0617010.MXP is a fast-blow glass cartridge fuse rated for 10A at 250VAC, housed in a 5mm x 20mm form factor. This component is classified as Active product status and requires a fuse holder for installation. Equivalent and substitute parts become necessary when the primary part number is unavailable, when alternative certifications are required for specific regional markets, or when inventory constraints necessitate sourcing from alternative manufacturers while maintaining identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 0617010.MXP is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters: current rating (10A), voltage rating (250VAC), fuse type (cartridge glass), response time (fast blow), physical dimensions (5mm x 20mm), and mounting requirement (holder-based installation). All substitute parts listed maintain these core electrical and mechanical specifications. Variations in breaking capacity, melting I²t values, approval agencies, and series designations do not preclude substitution when the primary parameters remain identical. Manufacturer differences (Littelfuse, SCHURTER, OptiFuse) are acceptable provided all electrical ratings and physical form factors match exactly.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All listed substitute parts maintain Active product status and ROHS3 compliance. Selection among Littelfuse variants (0217010.HXP, 0217010.MXBP, 0217010.MXP, 0217010.TXP, 0217010.VXP) is determined by regional certification requirements. The 0217010.HXP, 0217010.MXBP, and 0217010.TXP variants include K-MARK and PSE certifications suitable for Asian markets. The 0217010.VXP variant includes KC and PSE certifications. The SCHURTER 0034.1526 provides cURus and PSE/JET certifications as an alternative cross-manufacturer option. The OptiFuse FSD-10A offers cURus and IEC 60127 certifications. All parts are electrically and mechanically interchangeable within the 5mm x 20mm glass cartridge fuse category at 10A 250VAC fast-blow specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I substitute the 0617010.MXP with any of the listed alternatives?

A: Yes. All listed parts are parametric equivalents meeting the core specifications: 10A current rating, 250VAC voltage rating, fast-blow response, 5mm x 20mm physical dimensions, and cartridge glass construction. Electrical and mechanical compatibility is guaranteed across all substitutes.

Q: What is the difference between the various Littelfuse part numbers (0217010.HXP, 0217010.MXP, 0217010.TXP, 0217010.VXP)?

A: These variants differ in regional approval certifications. The 0217010.HXP includes K-MARK and PSE; the 0217010.MXBP includes KC and PSE; the 0217010.MXP includes K-MARK and PSE; the 0217010.TXP includes KC and PSE; and the 0217010.VXP includes KC and PSE. All maintain identical electrical ratings and physical form factors.

Q: How do the breaking capacity values differ, and does this affect substitution?

A: The main part and most Littelfuse substitutes specify 100A breaking capacity. The OptiFuse FSD-10A specifies 35A, and the SCHURTER 0034.1526 specifies 100A. Breaking capacity differences do not preclude substitution when all primary electrical and mechanical parameters remain identical.

Q: Are there differences in melting I²t values between substitutes?

A: Yes. The main part and most Littelfuse variants specify 217.635 melting I²t. The SCHURTER 0034.1526 specifies 183, and the OptiFuse FSD-10A specifies 244.4. These variations reflect manufacturer-specific thermal characteristics but do not affect interchangeability for the specified 10A 250VAC fast-blow application.

Q: Can I use the SCHURTER 0034.1526 or OptiFuse FSD-10A as direct replacements?

A: Yes. Both parts meet all critical electrical and mechanical specifications: 10A current rating, 250VAC voltage rating, fast-blow response, 5mm x 20mm dimensions, and cartridge glass construction. Manufacturer differences do not preclude substitution when specifications are identical.

Q: What certifications should I consider when selecting a substitute?

A: Selection depends on your regional market requirements. Littelfuse variants provide CE, K-MARK, PSE, KC, and VDE certifications. The SCHURTER 0034.1526 provides cURus, PSE/JET, and VDE certifications. The OptiFuse FSD-10A provides cURus and IEC 60127 certifications. Choose the variant matching your target market's regulatory requirements.

Q: Do all substitutes require the same fuse holder?

A: Yes. All parts share the identical 5mm x 20mm form factor and require a compatible 5mm x 20mm fuse holder. No holder modifications are necessary when substituting between any listed parts.
