Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Selection between SPP-4F60 and its substitute 170M3710 should be based on part status, availability, and certifications. SPP-4F60 is obsolete, whereas 170M3710 is active. Both parts are aligned in manufacturer, voltage rating, packaging, compliance, ECCN, and HTSUS codes. Use the active substitute part number 170M3710 for continued RoHS compliant and certified supply in applications requiring similar electrical and mechanical parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Which parameters are essential for confirming substitute fuse compatibility?
A: Manufacturer, current rating, voltage rating, package/case type, mounting type, and compliance certifications are necessary for substitution.

Q: Does 170M3710 provide matching compliance and certifications as SPP-4F60?
A: Yes. Both parts have the same manufacturer, ECCN (EAR99), HTSUS (8536.10.0040), and corresponding compliance information.

Q: Is there any difference in mounting or package style between the original and substitute?
A: SPP-4F60 specifies "Requires Holder" with a fuse link package, while 170M3710 specifies a rectangular blade package with bolt mounting.

Q: What is the part status difference and why does it matter for selection?
A: SPP-4F60 is obsolete; 170M3710 is active. Selecting an active substitute ensures continued availability and aligns with manufacturing compliance requirements.

Q: Are the current and voltage ratings compatible for direct substitution?
A: SPP-4F60 is rated at 60A and 700V; 170M3710 is rated at 63A and 700 VAC. The substitute offers a slightly higher current rating, matching the required voltage.
