BK/AGA-30 Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference

Part Overview

The BK/AGA-30 is a 30 A, 32 V AC/DC fast-blow glass cartridge fuse manufactured by Eaton - Electronics Division. This component is classified as an active product and requires a dedicated fuse holder for installation. The 1AG form factor (1/4" x 5/8") is a standard industrial fuse package. Substitute parts are identified based on matching electrical ratings, mechanical dimensions, and functional characteristics to ensure direct compatibility in circuit protection applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the BK/AGA-30 are identified through parametric equivalence. The substitution logic is based on the following critical parameters that must match exactly:

• Current Rating: 30 A
• Voltage Rating (AC): 32 V
• Fuse Type: Cartridge, Glass
• Response Time: Fast Blow
• Package / Case: 1AG, 1/4" x 5/8"
• Size / Dimension: 0.250" Dia x 0.625" L (6.35mm x 15.88mm)
• Breaking Capacity @ Rated Voltage: 1 kA
• DC Cold Resistance: 0.002 Ohms

Parts meeting all these parameters are classified as parametric equivalents and can be substituted without modification to the circuit or holder assembly.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The AGA-30 is a direct parametric equivalent to the BK/AGA-30. Both parts are manufactured by Eaton - Electronics Division and share identical electrical, mechanical, and compliance characteristics. Selection between these parts is based on availability and inventory status rather than technical differentiation.

Both parts carry UR approval agency certification and are classified as RoHS non-compliant with REACH Unaffected status. The active product status of both components confirms ongoing manufacturing support and supply chain availability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the AGA-30 be used as a direct replacement for the BK/AGA-30?

A: Yes. The AGA-30 is a parametric equivalent with identical current rating (30 A), voltage rating (32 V AC), fuse type (cartridge, glass), response time (fast blow), package designation (1AG), physical dimensions (0.250" Dia x 0.625" L), breaking capacity (1 kA), and DC cold resistance (0.002 Ohms). No circuit or holder modifications are required.

Q: What is the significance of the 1AG package designation?

A: The 1AG designation specifies the physical form factor and holder compatibility. This fuse requires a dedicated 1AG fuse holder. The dimensions 1/4" x 5/8" (6.35mm x 15.88mm) are standardized for this package class. Both the main part and substitute maintain this specification.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between the BK/AGA-30 and AGA-30?

A: No. Both parts share identical compliance profiles: UR approval, RoHS non-compliant status, and REACH Unaffected classification. Both are active products with ongoing manufacturer support.

Q: What does "Fast Blow" response time mean in this context?

A: Fast Blow indicates the fuse will open quickly under overcurrent conditions. This response characteristic is identical between the main part and substitute, ensuring equivalent circuit protection behavior.

Q: Is holder compatibility guaranteed between these parts?

A: Yes. Both parts require a 1AG fuse holder and share identical physical dimensions (0.250" Dia x 0.625" L). They are mechanically interchangeable within any standard 1AG holder assembly.
