bs88 fuse

[Mr Mark Sparks]

on a bs88 fuse there is sometimes a big G and a little g
Gg
what does this mean

Hi,

Think it refers to general use.

As opposed to gm which is for motors (large start up currents)

Gg = general purpose fuse. You also have Gm type which are as Wayne stated motor rated.

 

[Mr Mark Sparks]

cheers so
g general
m motor
what about the 1st G
this is just one of those curiosity questions rather than need to know
