FUSE ATO or ATC 10 AMP x2
The description "FUSE ATO or ATC 10 AMP x2" refers to a pair of interchangeable automotive fuses with a 10 amp rating. Here's a breakdown of the key points:
Type: ATO or ATC Fuse (10 Amps) - Interchangeable
ATO/ATC: These acronyms represent two very similar types of automotive blade fuses. They have the same physical dimensions and function identically in fuse holders. You can use either ATO or ATC in the same slot.
Blade Fuse: This refers to the shape of the fuse - a flat rectangle with two metal prongs on opposite ends that fit into fuse holders.
10 Amp Rating: Each fuse is designed to interrupt the circuit (blow) if the current flow exceeds 10 amps, protecting electrical components from damage caused by overload or short circuit.
Quantity: x2
This indicates you're getting two individual fuses, either ATO or ATC type, each with a 10-amp rating.
Applications:
10 amp ATO/ATC fuses are commonly used in various automotive applications where lower current is involved, such as:
Power outlets for charging phones or low-powered devices
Interior lighting (dome lights, map lights)
Instrument cluster lights
Turn signals
Radio or basic audio systems
Power windows (especially in smaller vehicles)
