Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 170M3565 is the designated substitute for the obsolete SPP-4M200. Selection is based on:

• Electrical Equivalence: Identical current and voltage ratings (200A, 700V) ensure functional compatibility in the same circuit protection application
• Product Status: The 170M3565 is active with confirmed inventory availability, eliminating procurement risk
• Regulatory Compliance: Both parts share identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications, maintaining compliance requirements
• Manufacturer Continuity: Both components are from the same manufacturer division, ensuring consistent quality and performance standards
• Holder Compatibility: Both parts require a holder for installation, maintaining the same mechanical interface requirements

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 170M3565 be used as a direct replacement for the SPP-4M200?

A: Yes. Both parts are rated for 200A at 700V and require a holder for installation. The 170M3565 is the active equivalent and is suitable for direct substitution in applications previously specified for the SPP-4M200.

Q: What is the difference between the package types listed (Fuse Link vs. Rectangular, Blade)?

A: Both package types are compatible with holder-based installations. The 170M3565 uses a rectangular blade configuration, which is the current standard form factor for this amperage and voltage class from Eaton - Bussmann Electrical Division.

Q: Are there any compliance or regulatory differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.10.0040) classifications, indicating equivalent regulatory treatment for export and tariff purposes.

Q: Why is the SPP-4M200 obsolete?

A: The SPP-4M200 has been discontinued by the manufacturer. The 170M3565 represents the current active product line for this electrical specification.

Q: What is the Breaking Capacity specification, and why is it important?

A: Breaking capacity (200kA for the 170M3565) indicates the maximum fault current the fuse can safely interrupt at its rated voltage. This specification ensures the fuse will operate reliably under fault conditions in the protected circuit.
