Fuses

Post by Farnold »

Any tips on locating fuses for my '52? Buss AGS is the designation. They are just a tad fatter than the currently available 1/4" diameter fuses.
One source said "I haven't seen that size in decades" - surprising!
Thanks in advance.

Fuses

I'm having the same problem locating replacement fuses. :(
The fuses the Auto shop had were designated 3AG. Could your AGS be AG5?
Someone out there must know we can get some (fuses). :)

my local Cessna dealer stocks them. I think they're still coming from Cessna.

Univair has them in their catalog. A bit on the pricey side. A good argument to replace the fuse holders with circuit breakers. When I bought my 54' B model, I found a few AGC fuses in the panel, and they appeared to work fine even though they were a bit too small in diameter to properly fit the fuse holders.
