Glass Fuse rated at 5A, a cartridge-type fuse used in the vehicle electrical system.

The fuse seats in the fuse box or an inline fuse holder and protects its circuit against overcurrent. When current exceeds the 5A rating the internal element melts and breaks the circuit, isolating the protected wiring and components. The glass body allows the element to be inspected visually to confirm whether the fuse has blown.

Frequently asked questions

What is the RTC4482 glass fuse used for?

The RTC4482 is a 5A glass cartridge fuse that protects an electrical circuit against overcurrent. It seats in the fuse box or an inline fuse holder, and when current exceeds 5A the internal element melts to break the circuit and isolate the protected wiring. It typically fits the older glass-fuse boxes on Series and Defender models.

How do I know if the glass fuse has blown?

A blown glass fuse shows a broken or melted metal element inside the transparent glass body, which you can check by eye. A blown fuse usually points to an overloaded circuit or a short, so it's worth finding the cause before fitting a replacement 5A fuse.

Can I fit a higher-rated fuse if the 5A keeps blowing?

No, don't fit a higher-rated fuse than the 5A specified for the circuit. The 5A rating is matched to the wiring it protects, and fitting a higher value risks overheating and wiring damage. A 5A fuse that keeps blowing signals a fault in the circuit that needs investigating.
