Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the GGM5 are qualified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional equivalence:

• Current Rating: 5A (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating: 125V AC (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 5X20MM (exact match required)
• Fuse Type: Cartridge, Glass (exact match required)
• Response Time: Fast Blow (exact match required)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (compliance requirement)

The substitute parts 0235005.HXP and 0235005.MXP, both manufactured by Littelfuse Inc., meet all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Both parts are classified as Series 235 cartridge fuses with identical current, voltage, and dimensional specifications. Substitution is valid when the application holder accommodates the 5X20MM cartridge format and fast-blow response characteristics are required.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both 0235005.HXP and 0235005.MXP are direct electrical and mechanical equivalents to the GGM5. Selection between these substitute parts is based on availability and packaging format:

• 0235005.HXP: 20,006 pieces in stock, bulk packaging
• 0235005.MXP: 3,306 pieces in stock, bulk packaging

Both parts carry identical electrical specifications, fast-blow response characteristics, and multi-agency approvals (CE, CSA, KC, PSE, UL). All three parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and EAR99 ECCN classification. The substitute parts require a compatible fuse holder designed for 5X20MM cartridge format. No circuit modifications are necessary when substituting between these parts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 0235005.HXP or 0235005.MXP be used as direct replacements for GGM5?

A: Yes. Both Littelfuse parts are direct electrical and mechanical equivalents. They share identical current ratings (5A), voltage ratings (125V AC), package dimensions (5X20MM), fuse type (cartridge glass), and response time (fast blow). All three parts are ROHS3 compliant and active products.

Q: What is the difference between 0235005.HXP and 0235005.MXP?

A: Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. They differ only in packaging format (both bulk) and current inventory levels. Selection should be based on availability and supply chain requirements.

Q: Do these fuses require a specific holder?

A: Yes. All three fuses (GGM5, 0235005.HXP, 0235005.MXP) are cartridge-type fuses that require a compatible 5X20MM fuse holder. The holder must be rated for 125V and 5A minimum.

Q: Are there any temperature or environmental limitations?

A: The Littelfuse substitute parts are rated for operating temperatures from -55°C to 125°C. The GGM5 operating temperature range is not specified in the provided data. Verify GGM5 temperature specifications against application requirements before substitution.

Q: What certifications do these fuses carry?

A: The Littelfuse substitutes (0235005.HXP and 0235005.MXP) carry CE, CSA, KC, PSE, and UL approvals. GGM5 certifications are not specified in the provided data. Confirm certification requirements for your specific application.

Q: What is the breaking capacity of these fuses?

A: The Littelfuse substitute parts have a breaking capacity of 10kA at rated voltage (125V). The GGM5 breaking capacity is not specified in the provided data.
