Hi,

I attach a picture of a fusible resistor which is open. It is inside a VFD (Variable Frequency Drive).
I really don't find it, so I need to look for an alternative to replace it. Do you think a 10A normal fusible will be suitable for this? I have an RWT05 15 OHMS 142 ºC. Maybe it could work but I'm not sure. Any suggestions?

IWAKI is the manufacturer, but I can't seem to find any good sources. KOA Speer makes a similar unit, here: http://www.koaspeer.com/products/resistors/leaded-resistors/wf/ . See 'Thermal Fuse Symbol' 10. Mouser carries KOA, but does not seem list the 13 ohm, 250 volt, 10A, 152°C item.
