Automotive Fuse Holder with Terminal — BX2017D | Black Lighter Socket | Inline Blade Fuse

The BX2017D automotive fuse holder is a compact, inline blade fuse holder designed for protecting automotive wiring circuits — accessories, audio systems, lighting, and custom electrical installations. The black lighter socket style housing provides a clean, professional appearance in vehicle interiors and engine bays, while the brass terminal contacts ensure reliable, low-resistance connections. The inline design allows the fuse holder to be installed anywhere along a wire run, protecting the circuit from the power source to the load. Available as a bare connector set for custom crimp assembly, or as a pre-wired 15cm harness for fast installation.

Why Inline Fuse Holders Are Essential

Every automotive electrical circuit must be protected by a fuse rated for the wire gauge and load current. Without a fuse:

Wire fire risk — a short circuit causes the wire to carry far more current than it can handle, heating the insulation to ignition point
Component damage — overcurrent destroys expensive audio amplifiers, lighting controllers, and accessories
Insurance and warranty issues — unfused aftermarket wiring can void vehicle warranties and insurance claims

The BX2017D inline fuse holder is installed in the positive wire as close to the power source (battery or fuse box) as possible, ensuring the entire circuit is protected.

Fuse Selection Guide

Wire Gauge	Max Fuse Rating	Typical Application
0.5mm² (20 AWG)	5A	Low-current sensors, LED strips
1.0mm² (18 AWG)	10A	Lighting, small accessories
1.5mm² (16 AWG)	15A	Audio head units, medium accessories
2.5mm² (14 AWG)	20–25A	Amplifiers, high-current accessories
4.0mm² (12 AWG)	30–40A	High-power amplifiers, winches

Installation Guide

Install the fuse holder in the positive wire as close to the battery or power source as possible (within 30cm is ideal).
Cut the positive wire and connect each end to the fuse holder terminals.
Insert a blade fuse rated for the wire gauge and load current (see fuse selection guide above).
Close the fuse holder cap securely.
Secure the fuse holder to the vehicle body or wiring loom with a cable tie to prevent movement.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What fuse rating should I use for a car audio amplifier?
A: Use a fuse rated for the amplifier’s maximum current draw, typically printed on the amplifier label. As a rule, use a fuse rated at 1.5× the amplifier’s rated current, not exceeding the wire gauge limit.

Q: Is the fuse included?
A: No. The fuse holder is supplied without a fuse. Select a blade fuse (ATO/ATC) rated for your circuit.
