Switch Fuse Unit – [BENLO]

A "kit kat switch benlo" refers to a rewireable electrical fuse unit manufactured by the brand Benlo, which is a product line of Bentec India Ltd. The device is not a "switch" in the conventional sense but a "kit kat" type fuse that is used for circuit protection.

• Rewireable: The fuse element (a metal wire) can be replaced manually when it melts due to an overcurrent or short-circuit event.
• Construction: The unit consists of a porcelain base that is fixed to the distribution board and a removable porcelain fuse carrier where the fuse wire is installed.
• Function: It protects electrical circuits and appliances by interrupting the flow of electricity when the current exceeds a safe limit. This prevents damage from faults like short circuits and overloads.
• Voltage and current ratings: Benlo offers Kit Kat fuses with different current ratings, such as 32A, 63A, and 100A, typically for a rated voltage of 415V, suitable for home distribution boards. A conventional electrical switch is used to manually turn a circuit on or off. A Kit Kat fuse, while sometimes referred to as a "switch," is a safety device designed to automatically break a circuit in the event of an electrical fault. Switch: An operator can turn the circuit on or off at will.
  
  • Kit Kat fuse: The circuit is broken automatically and only reconnected after the fuse wire is replaced manually.
