BC6033B Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The BC6033B is a 30A, 600V fuse block cartridge designed for chassis mount applications with 3-circuit configuration. Manufactured by Eaton - Bussmann Electrical Division, this component is classified as obsolete. Due to its obsolete status, identifying equivalent and substitute parts is essential for system maintenance, repair, and component sourcing in applications requiring Class CC fuse cartridge blocks.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the BC6033B are identified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional equivalence:

• Current Rating: 30 A
• Voltage Rating: 600V
• Number of Circuits: 3
• Fuse Type: Cartridge
• Fuse Size: 0.394" Dia x 1.496" L (10mm x 38mm)
• Mounting Type: Chassis Mount
• Fuseholder Type: Block

The BC6033B has two identified substitutes: BCM603-3C (Eaton - Bussmann Electrical Division, Active status) and L60030C3C (Littelfuse Inc., Active status). Both maintain the core electrical specifications and mechanical form factor required for direct replacement in Class CC fuse applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For applications currently using the BC6033B, the following selection criteria apply:

BCM603-3C is an active product from the same manufacturer (Eaton - Bussmann Electrical Division) and carries RoHS compliance certification. This substitute maintains manufacturer continuity and is suitable for new designs or replacements where RoHS compliance is required.

L60030C3C is an active product from Littelfuse Inc. that matches the electrical specifications (30A, 600V, 3-circuit) and mechanical form factor (10mm x 38mm cartridge, chassis mount) of the BC6033B. This part carries ROHS3 compliance and is compatible with 5AG fuse cartridges. The L60030C3C is suitable for applications requiring cross-manufacturer substitution with enhanced compliance documentation.

Both substitutes are active products with current availability, making them viable alternatives to the obsolete BC6033B. Selection between them depends on termination style requirements (wire connector vs. box lug vs. solder lug) and compliance certification preferences.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can BCM603-3C directly replace BC6033B in existing installations? A: BCM603-3C shares the same manufacturer and 3-circuit configuration. However, it uses wire connector termination versus the solder lug termination of BC6033B. Compatibility depends on the circuit board or panel design. Verify termination style compatibility before substitution.

Q: What is the primary difference between L60030C3C and BC6033B? A: L60030C3C is manufactured by Littelfuse Inc. and uses box lug termination instead of solder lug. Both maintain identical electrical ratings (30A, 600V) and mechanical dimensions (10mm x 38mm cartridge). The L60030C3C is compatible with 5AG fuse cartridges, whereas BC6033B is specified for Class CC fuses.

Q: Are both substitutes RoHS compliant? A: Yes. BCM603-3C is RoHS Compliant, and L60030C3C is ROHS3 Compliant. Both meet current environmental compliance standards.

Q: Does termination style affect electrical performance? A: Termination style (solder lug, box lug, or wire connector) affects installation method and mechanical interface but does not alter electrical performance. Selection must match the existing circuit design.

Q: Can I use L60030C3C in applications originally designed for Class CC fuses? A: L60030C3C is specified for 5AG fuse cartridges (13/32" x 1-1/2" Midget). Verify fuse cartridge compatibility with your application before substitution, as this differs from the Class CC specification of BC6033B.
