T60100-3C Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The T60100-3C is a fuse block cartridge designed for 600V, 100A applications with 3-circuit configuration and chassis mount orientation. Manufactured by Eaton - Bussmann Electrical Division, this component is classified as obsolete. Due to its obsolete status, identifying equivalent substitute parts is essential for system maintenance, repair, and component replacement in existing installations.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the T60100-3C is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Current Rating: 100 A (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating: 600V (exact match required)
• Number of Circuits: 3 (exact match required)
• Fuseholder Type: Block (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Chassis Mount (exact match required)
• Termination Style: Box Lug (exact match required)
• RoHS Compliance: Required for regulatory alignment

The TM60100-3CR qualifies as a substitute part because it maintains all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. While the fuse type differs (bolt down versus cartridge) and the series designation changes from T600 to TM600, the functional equivalence is established through matching current capacity, voltage rating, circuit count, mounting configuration, and termination method. The substitute part is active in production, ensuring availability and ongoing manufacturer support.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TM60100-3CR is the designated substitute for the obsolete T60100-3C. Both components are RoHS compliant and manufactured by the same supplier, ensuring regulatory alignment and quality consistency. The substitute part is currently active in production, providing assured availability and manufacturer technical support.

Selection of the TM60100-3CR is appropriate for replacement applications where the T60100-3C is no longer procurable. The active product status of the substitute ensures long-term supply chain reliability and access to manufacturer documentation and support resources.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TM60100-3CR directly replace the T60100-3C in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical electrical ratings (100A, 600V, 3-circuit), mounting configuration (chassis mount), and termination method (box lug). The functional equivalence is established through these critical parameters.

Q: What is the difference between cartridge and bolt down fuse types in these blocks?

A: The T60100-3C uses cartridge fuses, while the TM60100-3CR uses bolt down fuses. Both are compatible with their respective block designs and maintain the same current and voltage ratings. The fuse type selection depends on the specific fuse inventory and installation requirements.

Q: Why is the T60100-3C obsolete?

A: The T60100-3C has been discontinued by the manufacturer. The TM60100-3CR represents the current production equivalent, offering the same electrical and mechanical functionality with active manufacturer support.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the T60100-3C and TM60100-3CR are RoHS compliant, meeting environmental and regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing.

Q: What packaging is available for the substitute part?

A: The TM60100-3CR is supplied in bulk packaging, with 856 pieces currently in stock as new original inventory.
