Blue Sea Systems 5028 ST Blade Fuse Block with Cover, 6 Circuit, Without Negative Bus, 30 Amp
The Blue Sea Systems 5028 is a 6 circuit ST blade fuse block with cover, built for organizing and protecting individually fused circuits on a boat's DC electrical panel. Because it ships without a negative (ground) bus, it is intended for installations where each circuit's return path is wired independently rather than tied to a shared common bus bar, giving the installer full control over how negative connections are routed. Each of the six positions accepts standard ST (mini) blade fuses and is rated to carry up to 30 amps per circuit, making the block suitable for a wide range of accessory, lighting, pump, and electronics circuits. Screw-type connectors secure the incoming and outgoing wiring at each position for a solid, vibration-resistant termination. The block is molded from plastic with an upper temperature rating of 125 degrees Celsius, and the included cover helps shield the live terminals and fuses from accidental contact and stray splash. Compact at 2 inches wide by 1.5 inches high, the 5028 mounts to a bulkhead or panel surface, keeping fuse blocks and circuit wiring tidy in tight helm, console, or engine compartment spaces. It is a straightforward upgrade or replacement for boaters standardizing on Blue Sea Systems fuse blocks throughout a DC distribution system.
