Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the AGA-10 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Current Rating: 10 A (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating - AC: 125 V (exact match required)
• Fuse Type: Cartridge, Glass (exact match required)
• Response Time: Fast Blow (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 1AG, 1/4" x 5/8" (exact match required)
• Size / Dimension: 0.250" Dia x 0.625" L (exact match required)
• Breaking Capacity @ Rated Voltage: 1kA (exact match required)
• DC Cold Resistance: 0.008 Ohms (exact match required)

The substitute part BK/AGA-10 meets all specified electrical and mechanical parameters, confirming direct functional equivalence for circuit protection applications requiring 10 A fast-blow protection at 125 V AC/DC.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both AGA-10 and BK/AGA-10 are active products manufactured by Eaton - Electronics Division with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts is based on availability and inventory status. The AGA-10 has 927 units in stock, while BK/AGA-10 has 1959 units in stock. Both parts carry EAR99 export classification and are RoHS non-compliant. Neither part has specified operating temperature or approval agency certifications in the provided data. For applications requiring 10 A fast-blow protection at 125 V AC/DC in 1AG form factor, either part provides equivalent circuit protection performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can BK/AGA-10 be used as a direct replacement for AGA-10?

A: Yes. BK/AGA-10 is a parametric equivalent with identical current rating (10 A), voltage rating (125 V AC), fuse type (cartridge, glass), response time (fast blow), package designation (1AG), physical dimensions (0.250" Dia x 0.625" L), breaking capacity (1kA), and DC cold resistance (0.008 Ohms). Direct substitution is supported.

Q: What holder is required for the AGA-10?

A: The AGA-10 requires a 1AG fuse holder assembly. The 1AG designation specifies the mechanical and electrical interface standard for this cartridge fuse form factor.

Q: Are there differences in RoHS compliance between AGA-10 and BK/AGA-10?

A: Both parts are RoHS non-compliant according to provided specifications. No compliance differentiation exists between the two parts.

Q: What is the physical size of the AGA-10 fuse?

A: The AGA-10 measures 0.250 inches in diameter by 0.625 inches in length, equivalent to 6.35mm x 15.88mm. This dimension is standardized for the 1AG package classification.

Q: What is the DC cold resistance specification?

A: Both AGA-10 and BK/AGA-10 have a DC cold resistance of 0.008 Ohms, measured under zero-current conditions at room temperature.

Q: Can these fuses be used for DC applications?

A: The AGA-10 is rated for 10 A at 125 V AC/DC, indicating suitability for both AC and DC circuit protection applications at the specified voltage and current ratings.
