Look for a fuse with a similar voltage and current rating, such as a 6A rating, and ensure it matches the required fuse standards, namely BS 88 and IEC 60269 for compliance.

The high rupture capacity allows for effective interruption of fault currents, minimising the risk of equipment damage and ensuring user safety during electrical malfunctions.

Selective coordination optimises system performance by ensuring that only the fuse closest to a fault will operate, reducing unnecessary power outages and protecting critical equipment.
