In-line fuse holders

for roadway and street
lighting applications
Meet code requirements and save money with BussmannTM series in-line fuse holders
Superior circuit protection in roadway and street lighting applications
is key to keeping the lights reliable and safe. Using in-line fuse holders Typical street lighting
that can adequately withstand the lighting environment can make it application
easier to apply superior circuit protection.

In fact, breakaway capability and submersibility are quickly

becoming preferred features. Many states already mandate

Pole base
breakaway fuse holders in roadway lighting applications to ensure
safe disconnection in the event of a knockdown or if maintenance is
required. Submersibility and waterproof requirements have also been
enforced as street lighting is prone to wet conditions.

Bussmann series HEB and HEX breakaway in-line fuse holders are
UL® Recognized as fuse holders and meet breakaway and
submersibility requirements. What's more, they can help you realize
a reduction in labor time, tools needed and maintenance costs when
used as a standard solution.

In-line fuse and holder

Specific codes and regulations for street lighting vary by state, for example:
In-line dummy fuse "neutral" and holder
