250/600 VAC • Renewable • 1-600 A
Description
Littelfuse RLN and RLS series renewable fuses have
traditionally been used to provide low cost protection.
However, generally increased levels of available fault current
and the distinct possibility that renewable fuses may be
improperly renewed, have rendered them unsafe. The use of
these fuses in new applications is prohibited by law.

Guide For Proper Renewable Fuse Usage
Renewable fuses should only be used where short-
circuit currents are known to be less than 10,000
amperes, and where correct replacement of open
links is assured. Renewable fuses and links are not
recommended for new applications.
Still Using Class H Fuses?
Littelfuse offers several fuse and fuse block
combinations that can greatly improve electrical safety.
