Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Does this fuse holder come with a fuse included?
A: No, this listing is for the SE256 fuse holder housing only. The 6.35x32mm (1/4" x 1-1/4") glass or ceramic fuses must be purchased separately based on the specific current rating your circuit requires (up to 10A).

Q: What size hole do I need to drill to mount this holder?
A: The SE256 typically requires a panel cutout diameter of approximately 14mm to 15mm. It is secured tightly to the panel from behind using the included threaded mounting nut.

Q: Can I use this for a 12V or 24V automotive circuit?
A: Yes. While it is rated for a *maximum* of 250V AC, it works perfectly fine for low-voltage DC applications like 12V or 24V, provided the current flowing through it does not exceed its 10 Amp rating.
