Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The BK/ATC-10 is classified as a parametric equivalent to the ATC-10 based on strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Current Rating: 10 A (identical)
• Voltage Rating (DC): 32 V (identical)
• Fuse Type: Automotive (identical)
• Response Time: Fast Blow (identical)
• Package / Case: Blade, ATO/ATC (identical)
• Breaking Capacity @ Rated Voltage: 1 kA (identical)
• Mounting Type: Requires Holder (identical)
• Physical Dimensions: 0.760" L x 0.207" W x 0.492" H (identical)
• Approval Agency: UL (identical)

Both parts are manufactured by Eaton - Bussmann Electrical Division and maintain active product status. The substitute relationship is based exclusively on electrical performance, mechanical compatibility, and regulatory certification equivalence.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both ATC-10 and BK/ATC-10 are suitable for direct substitution in automotive electrical circuits requiring 10 A fast-blow protection at 32 V DC. Selection between the two parts may be based on inventory availability and RoHS compliance requirements. The BK/ATC-10 carries ROHS3 compliance designation, while the ATC-10 carries standard RoHS compliance. Both parts maintain UL approval and identical electrical and mechanical specifications, ensuring functional interchangeability in ATO/ATC holder-based installations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

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

A: Yes. Both parts share identical current rating (10 A), voltage rating (32 V DC), response time (fast blow), package format (blade ATO/ATC), breaking capacity (1 kA), and physical dimensions. No circuit modification is required.

Q: What is the difference between ATC-10 and BK/ATC-10?

A: The parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The primary difference is RoHS compliance designation: ATC-10 is RoHS Compliant, while BK/ATC-10 is ROHS3 Compliant. Both maintain UL approval and active product status.

Q: Are these fuses compatible with standard ATO/ATC holders?

A: Yes. Both parts are designed for holder-based installation in the ATO/ATC blade format and share identical physical dimensions (0.760" L x 0.207" W x 0.492" H).

Q: What is the breaking capacity of these fuses?

A: Both ATC-10 and BK/ATC-10 have a breaking capacity of 1 kA at rated voltage (32 V DC).

Q: Which part should I select for new designs?

A: Selection should be based on inventory availability and RoHS compliance requirements for your application. Both parts are functionally equivalent and maintain active product status from Eaton - Bussmann Electrical Division.
