Datasheet 

Operating Principle

Nonindicating automotive blade fuses open within seconds of being exposed to overloads and short circuits. They have no indicator for identifying a blown fuse, so they're sometimes used with an indicating fuse block or cover.

Automotive blade fuses are the most commonly used type of automotive fuse for protecting electrical systems and components against overcurrent. These 32VDC plug-in style fuses have a plastic housing with two blade-style contacts that fit into compatible fuse block or holder. Their housing is usually color-coded by amperage rating to help prevent installation of a mismatched fuse. The housing is also transparent for checking whether the fuse element is intact or has melted.
