## Description

The fuse is often located in a box cover unit. Plug fuses provide a compact and inexpensive method to prevent damage to electrical motors. They help reduce downtime and lower maintenance costs by opening the circuit when a dangerous overload is present. When used for residential branch circuit protection, fuses are typically located in the main fuse panel.

Review: Good Value - I keep ordering these because the wiring in my old home is stressed by modern usage and I blow them often. They're exactly what my old fuse boxes use and they're less expensive here than at the stores. The work well and last as long as I don't stress my wiring...
Review: Correct TL‑20 fuses for legacy Edison‑base panels - These are TL‑20, 20‑amp, 125‑volt, UL‑listed, non‑renewable “loaded‑link” plug fuses. They fit standard Edison‑base fuse holders found in older service panels. The TL time‑delay element is designed to ride through short inrush events from motors or compressors and open on sustained overloads, which reduces nuisance blows on appropriate circuits. Labeling is clear and the amp rating is easy to read in low light. Important use notes: match the amp rating to the circuit; never upsize a fuse to stop repeated openings. TL plug fuses are not Type‑S rejection fuses; do not substitute where a Type‑S adapter is installed. On 20‑amp branch circuits, wiring is typically 12 AWG per U.S. code; confirm before use. Pros: UL‑listed; genuine time‑delay; clear markings; economical 3‑pack. Cons: Only for Edison‑base holders; not a fix for underlying wiring faults. Bottom line: If your panel specifies TL‑20 fuses, these meet the spec and reduce nuisance openings on motor loads.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quality on a hard to find part
*by J***Y on November 30, 2024*

I still have this type of fuse on my well pump disconnect box. Every time I have to replace it I say I'm going to replace the box with a proper disconnect/breaker box but of course I never do. These are getting hard to find so now I make sure I have spares on hand. Got my pump back online quickly.
